  • Syria accuses Israel of a pre-planned role in violence that harmed Sweida's internal peace last July.
  • A Syrian government source rejected political exploitation of the Druze community.
  • The Druze community in Sweida is an inseparable part of the Syrian national fabric, according to Syria.
  • Syria accused Israel of involving the Druze community in Israeli election propaganda.

A Syrian government source has responded to statements made by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu regarding the Druze community in Sweida, southern Syria. The source asserted that the Druze community in Sweida is and will remain an inseparable part of the Syrian national fabric. "We completely reject any attempts to make political use of the Druze community or to involve them in election propaganda and campaigns in Israel," the source stated. The Syrian official further accused Israel of playing a central and pre-planned role in actions aimed at harming internal peace in the Sweida province in July of last year.

The Syrian government's statement reiterates its position on the Druze community's integration within Syria and its rejection of external political interference, particularly from Israel, in its internal affairs. The accusation against Israel suggests a deliberate effort to destabilize the region and exploit ethnic or sectarian tensions for political gain.
