💨 Abstract

Thousands of Syrians, mostly Alawites, have sought sanctuary at a Russian air base following sectarian killings in Syria's coastal region last week. Many have returned to their devastated villages, but others remain fearful. The violence erupted after Syrian security forces claimed they were attacked by militants loyal to former president Bashar al-Assad. The new Syrian interim government has promised to punish those responsible, including allies if necessary.
