As calm was reported in the Syrian city of Sweida on Sunday (July 20), members of the internal security command were deployed in Al-Mazra'a village near the city, blocking entry of armed Bedouin tribesmen.

Claim comes after a new truce between Druze and Bedouin groups in Suwayda and a US-brokered deal to end Israeli attacks.

DAMASCUS, Syria — Renewed clashes broke out overnight between Druze armed groups and members of Bedouin clans in southern Syria, and government forces were preparing to deploy again to the area Friday after pulling out under a ceasefire agreement that halted several days of violence earlier this week, officials said.

The Islamist-led government said Bedouin fighters left the predominantly Druze city and the U.S. stepped up calls for an end to days of fighting.

Syrian government forces had largely pulled out of the Druze-majority southern province of Sweida after days of clashes with militias linked to the Druze religious minority that threatened to unravel the country’s fragile post-war transition.
