Syrian Government Battles Alawite Insurgency, 120+ Dead
Syrian security forces are currently engaged in intense battles to suppress an uprising by fighters from Bashar al-Assad's Alawite sect, which has resulted in over 130 reported fatalities and poses a significant threat to the Islamist-led government. The unrest, particularly concentrated in coastal regions like Tartous and Latakia, began with well-planned attacks from pro-Assad forces, prompting curfews and combing operations by security forces. Local Alawite communities allege they have been targeted since the ousting of Assad, contributing to the escalating violence. The interim government under Ahmed al-Sharaa is struggling to consolidate control while facing ongoing U.S. sanctions and security challenges, including tensions with Israel. The clashes highlight fears among minorities about the future of Syria under Islamist rule. Witnesses report continuous gunfire and heavy military presence in the affected areas as security forces attempt to regain control.
