Israel bombs Syrian forces entering Druze city after sectarian clashes

Title: Israel Bombs Syrian Forces Entering Druze City After Sectarian Clashes In response to the ongoing sectarian violence in Suweida, Syria, Israel has bombed Syrian forces entering the Druze-majority city. The clashes, which began on Sunday, have resulted in the deaths of at least 200 people, primarily involving Druze militias and Bedouin tribes. The violence has escalated to the point where the Syrian government has deployed forces to the area, prompting a military intervention by Israel. Israel's airstrikes targeted the Syrian forces as they attempted to enter Suweida, a move aimed at preventing further escalation of the conflict and protecting the Druze population. The situation in Suweida highlights the complex and volatile nature of the sectarian tensions that have plagued Syria since the outbreak of the civil war in 2011. The involvement of Israel, a key regional player, underscores the broader geopolitical implications of the ongoing unrest in the country.
