On April 30, 2025, Israel conducted a warning airstrike targeting an extremist group in Sahnaya, Syria, which was allegedly preparing to attack Druze communities near Damascus. This action follows Israel's commitment to defend the Druze minority amid rising sectarian tensions. Recent clashes between Druze and Sunni Muslim gunmen in Jaramana resulted in over a dozen deaths, with violence spreading to Sahnaya, where 11 people were killed. Israel's leadership emphasized the Syrian regime's responsibility to protect the Druze population, highlighting concerns over regional stability and minority rights. (PC: Reuters)
