Reports of large gatherings of HTS-BACKED Sunni tribal fighters in Al-Bustan, Dama, and Najran villages, in apparent preparation for storming nearby villages in Al-Suwayda countryside.

Heavy clashes broke out between HTS-BACKED tribal fighters and Druze gunmen in Areeqa and Um Al-Zaytoun towns on the Damascus–Al-Suwayda road, as HTS-BACKED Sunni tribal groups committed violations, burning houses. The clashes cut off the Dama–Areeqa and Najran–Areeqa roads, raising the ongoing tension in the area.

Internal Security Forces [Jolani’s Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham terrorists] failed to prevent tribal gunmen from advancing into Al-Suwayda villages in violation of the agreement.
Civilian appeals immediate action to prevent the collapse of the ceasefire deal, and implementing the agreement.

Meanwhile in Rif Dimashq Province: unidentified group bombed and sabotaged the Sheikh Abdullah shrine in Beit Jin, in Jabal Al-Sheikh area of Rif Dimashq, in a new attack on Druze religious sanctities amid rising tensions in Al-Suwayda.

The Sheikh Abdullah shrine is one of the most prominent historic religious sites for the Druze community in Syria and Lebanon, holding great spiritual significance as it belongs to a known Sufi figure in the region. It had long been a shrine for regular religious visits over decades, but has suffered neglect in recent years due to the ongoing conflict in Syria.
