Tensions in southern Syria have escalated dramatically as pro-regime militias reportedly set fire to homes belonging to the Druze community, branding them with slurs like “Druze pigs.” Convoys of armed fighters have been seen heading toward Sweida, raising fears of a wider sectarian clash. The Druze minority, long caught between loyalty to the Syrian state and local autonomy, now faces a fresh wave of violence.

Syria Clash: Intense fighting has reignited in and around Suwayda between Druze militias and Bedouin tribal fighters, despite a declared ceasefire. An estimated 50,000–70,000 fighters from the Arab Tribal Army have mobilized against the Druze, triggering mass displacement, civilian casualties, and widespread destruction — including regime-affiliated groups burning Druze homes in Mazraa village. Bedouin commanders have rejected the ceasefire, and reinforcements from Idlib — a stronghold of HTS — are reportedly joining the assault. Amid this chaos, HTS leader Abu Mohammad al-Jolani has fled Damascus.

Tensions between Israel and Syria have reached a boiling point. The Syrian Army has reportedly withdrawn from the key Druze city of Sweida following relentless Israeli airstrikes. Damascus lies in ruins as Israeli forces target key Syrian military installations, citing threats from HTS-aligned units and a need to protect the Druze population. With dozens feared dead and infrastructure devastated, the region is on the brink of a wider war. Is this the beginning of a new Middle East conflict? Stay tuned for live updates on the escalating Israel-Syria war.

Dozens of Israeli Druze crossed from the Golan Heights into Syria’s Sweida province amid escalating violence between Druze militias, Bedouin tribes, and Syrian government forces. The move followed calls on social media urging Druze solidarity across borders. In response to what Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said was a Syrian plan to use weapons against the Druze, Israel launched airstrikes on Syrian military convoys, killing and wounding several personnel. Syria condemned the strikes and accused Israel of causing civilian deaths. Despite a declared ceasefire by Syria's defense minister, clashes continued, and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported the execution of at least 19 Druze civilians.

Syrian troops have entered Sweida after Druze leaders approved military deployment to end deadly clashes with Bedouin groups. Over 100 people have been killed, including civilians and security forces, as violence spiraled across the province. Damascus imposed a curfew and declared a ceasefire following an agreement with Druze factions. This marks the first major military entry into Sweida since President Ahmed al-Sharaa assumed power. The government says troops aim to protect civilians and will respond only to attacks by outlawed factions.

Israel launched an airstrike on Syrian tanks approaching the Druze-dominated Sweida region, releasing chilling footage of the attack. The IDF says the strike was a defensive measure to protect the Druze minority and deter threats near Israel's border. Defense Minister Katz warned Syria against escalation. The move follows intense clashes in Sweida that killed over 80, including civilians. Israel has reiterated its vow to prevent hostile forces from gaining a foothold in southern Syria amid growing regional instability.

Russia has fiercely condemned Israel's airstrikes on Syrian territory, including near the presidential palace, calling them a "flagrant violation of international law" and a threat to regional stability. Moscow reaffirmed its support for Syria’s sovereignty under the Al-Sharaa regime and warned against any foreign interference. The IDF defended its actions, citing retaliation for Syrian regime moves against Druze civilians. Russia, however, urged peaceful dialogue and national unity in Syria as the only path to lasting stability and an end to foreign intervention.
