lashes continue in Suwayda Province between Druze fighters and Syrian government forces, who entered the region in an attempt to assert control. The fighting follows earlier battles between Druze and tribal factions, resulting in dozens of deaths and injuries. The escalation coincides with Israeli airstrikes targeting Syrian government-aligned forces in the area, further heightening tensions. The Syrian government has referred to the armed groups involved as ''outlaws.''
