💨 Abstract

In Syria, deadly sectarian fighting broke out between Druze communities and pro-government forces in Druze-majority areas south of Damascus. The clashes started after an audio clip criticizing Islam's Prophet Muhammad was circulated, attributed to a Druze cleric. However, the cleric denied responsibility. The Druze spiritual leader, Sheikh Hikmat Al-Hijri, accused the government of a genocidal attack on the minority community.
