Syrian presidency to send new force to halt clashes in south

The Syrian presidency has announced plans to deploy a new force to halt the ongoing clashes between Bedouin and Druze fighters in the southern province of Suweida. The violence, which has reportedly resulted in hundreds of casualties, has been raging for several days. The decision by the Syrian leadership aims to de-escalate the situation and restore stability in the region. The clashes are believed to have been sparked by long-standing tensions and disputes between the two groups, exacerbated by the broader conflict in Syria. The deployment of the new force is seen as a critical step to end the fighting and prevent further loss of life. It remains to be seen how effective this intervention will be in restoring order and fostering a lasting resolution to the underlying issues driving the conflict.
