Shafaq News – Damascus

An Israeli airstrike on Sunday targeted a gathering of Bedouin tribal fighters in Suwayda province, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported.

The strike coincided with renewed fighting between Druze groups and Bedouin factions, despite a declared ceasefire. According to the Observatory, tribal forces had launched an operation aimed at “freeing detainees held by Druze armed groups.”

Clashes also broke out in Rima Hazem, Areeqa, and Shahba, involving mortar fire and medium-caliber weapons.

In Areeqa, several homes were set ablaze during the shelling, causing significant damage and raising concerns over a worsening humanitarian situation if the violence continues.
