Violence in Syria’s southern city of Sweida has left nearly 1,000 dead amid ongoing sectarian clashes between the Druze community and Bedouin fighters. Despite a declared ceasefire, heavy gunfire and mortar shelling continued. The interim government, led by President Ahmed al-Shara, has struggled to regain control. Israeli airstrikes in southern Syria and Damascus further escalated tensions, while the U.S. backed the current Syrian administration. Humanitarian conditions have worsened, with hospitals overwhelmed and minorities fearing for their safety under al-Shara’s rule.

The UK-based monitoring group Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that at least 940 people have been killed in fighting around Sweida over the past week, according to Reuters.
