Israel launched airstrikes on Syrian forces entering the Druze city of Suweida following deadly sectarian clashes between Druze and Bedouin tribes. Over 100 people were killed in the fighting. Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu stated the strikes were to prevent harm to the Druze community due to their ties to Israel. Syria's defense minister announced a ceasefire after reaching an agreement with local dignitaries, but clashes continued. The situation remains tense, with concerns about the Syrian government's intentions and the ongoing conflict.
