The violence erupted amidst deeper geopolitical tensions, drawing Israeli strikes into the fray as they aimed to intervene in favor of the Druse community. Following the announcement of a cease-fire, the Syrian government redeployed security forces to stabilize the region. President Ahmed al-Shara addressed the nation about the "dangerous turning point" following the recent bloodshed and foreign intervention.
Brig. Gen. Ahmad al-Dalati, a security commander, confirmed that Bedouin families were being relocated to neighboring Daraa for their safety. These families were considered "hostages" amidst the escalating violence, highlighted by the prolonged strife over land rights between the communities of Bedouins and Druse, which has historical roots dating back decades.
The situation remains tense, with reports of sporadic fighting, despite evacuations being executed by private vehicles and government buses.
