One day after reaching a ceasefire with Israel, Syrian military forces began moving into the country's Suwayda Governorate, where dozens of people have been killed in recent days amid fighting between warring tribes.

The Syrian government says clashes in the southern city of Suwayda have stopped after a week of violence left hundreds of people dead, drawing Israeli intervention and US condemnation.

Israeli intervention ‘reignited tensions’, with fighting ‘a dangerous turning point’, President al-Sharaa said.

According to Al Ra’i, an Amman daily, the Internal Security chief in As-Suwayda announced that detained Bedouin families would be released within hours and assured that they would return to their homes, emphasizing a continued commitment to respecting the ceasefire and ensuring calm.

The death toll in Syria’s southern province of Suwayda has climbed to 718 amid fierce clashes between armed tribal factions and militant groups linked to the Joulani government, according to the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).

The pro-government Sunni fighters are threatening to attack the southern Druze-majority province of Suwayda and “burn” all inside if their alleged hostages are not released by Druze militants. A war monitor reported over a thousand deaths in the latest sectarian conflict.
