Israel launched air strikes and deployed troops in southern Syria over the weekend following clashes involving the country’s Druze minority. The violence was sparked by the circulation of an audio recording attributed to a Druze citizen and deemed blasphemous. “As we speak, we have 47 Druze militia men killed, 28 security members, 14 civilians”, FRANCE 24’s Wassim Nasr said in an analysis, adding that another 4 civilians were killed in a drone strike.
