Israel and Syria have reportedly agreed to a ceasefire after days of violent clashes between Druze and Bedouin communities in Syria’s southern Sweida province.
Over 300 have died.
The violence spiraled when Israel launched airstrikes on Damascus, claiming it was acting to protect the Druze minority.
The Israeli Air Force targeted Syrian regime positions in the south, insisting on their withdrawal.
Although Tel Aviv insists the action was to shield its "Druze brothers," experts suggest deeper motives, from political posturing to preventing a strong, unified Syria under interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa.
While the U.S. confirmed the ceasefire, ground reports indicate that fighting continues in several regions.
Netanyahu urged Israeli Druze not to cross the border.
With historic roots of autonomy and past alliances, the Druze community finds itself fractured in post-Assad Syria, unsure of its place under the new regime.
Is this protection-or a geopolitical gamble by Tel Aviv?
