In a significant development, Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa has publicly pledged to protect the rights of the Druze minority in Syria. This commitment comes in the wake of a ceasefire that ended intense clashes between government forces and Druze fighters in the southern regions of the country. The U.S. intervention played a crucial role in halting the violence, allowing for a much-needed period of calm.
Sharaa accused Israel of attempting to fracture Syria further. His strong words underline the ongoing tensions in the region and highlight the importance of unity and stability for the Druze community. The Druze, an ethnic and religious minority in Syria, have faced numerous challenges, and Sharaa’s vow aims to reassure them of their safety and rights amidst the turmoil.
