A recent earthquake in central Syria has stirred distressing memories of last year's devastating tremor, although it has had only a minor impact this time around.
Measuring 5.5 on the Richter scale and striking 28 kilometers east of Hama, the quake was also felt in Damascus and Beirut, prompting residents to take to the streets in fear of aftershocks.
The US Geological Survey has confirmed the quake’s magnitude as 5.0 with a depth of 10 kilometers.
Fortunately, local authorities have reported no deaths or significant damage following the event, providing some relief amidst ongoing regional anxieties.
Human rights defenders say refugees "are increasingly becoming targets of xenophobia, discrimination, and violent aggression" upon their return to Syria.

In a significant development, Hezbollah has reportedly evacuated its headquarters in the Beirut suburb of Dahieh, according to Lebanese media reports. The move follows the assassination of the group's top military commander, Fuad Shukr, in Beirut earlier this month, and the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. Hezbollah, anticipating potential Israeli strikes in retaliation for these assassinations, has taken the drastic step of relocating its senior personnel away from its stronghold in Beirut. According to the Lebanese news outlet Al Joumhouria, the evacuation includes not only Hezbollah’s military operations but also its political wing, signalling the gravity of the situation.
