Clashes in Tartus Leave Six Dead Amid Protests Over Alawite Shrine Burning in Aleppo
Dec 25, 2024, 03:24 PM
Clashes erupted in Tartus, Syria, between security forces and gunmen, resulting in the deaths of six members of the Syrian Interior Ministry and injuries to several others. The violence was reportedly triggered by protests against the burning of an Alawite shrine in Aleppo, which has led to widespread demonstrations among the Alawite and Christian communities across the region. The Syrian military has deployed reinforcements to Tartus and is conducting operations to encircle the gunmen, some of whom are believed to be affiliated with remnants of the former Assad regime. The military operations aim to restore stability amid rising tensions and sectarian sentiments following the recent incident in Aleppo. The Syrian Minister of Information stated that there are hidden hands trying to incite internal strife and emphasized the government's commitment to maintaining security and protecting religious sites.
