VARIOUS DRONE SHOTS SHOWING CONVOY OF BUSES AND VEHICLES EVACUATING BEDOUIN FAMILIES FROM SUWAYDA 3. BEDOUIN ARAB FAMILIES BEING EVACUATED IN PICKUP TRUCKS SUWAYDA, SYRIA - JULY 21: Some of the Bedouin Arab families who were forcibly displaced by Druze forces affiliated with the Hikmat al-Hijri militia during clashes in Syria’s southern Suwayda province have been evacuated on Monday, July 21. In the early hours of the morning, Bedouin families — numbering in the hundreds — who had been forcibly displaced by forces loyal to Druze leader Hikmat al-Hijri, were taken out of the city. The convoy, consisting of four buses and about 20 private vehicles carrying the Bedouin families, including women and children, left the area accompanied by the Syrian Red Crescent, without escort from any government agency. After leaving Suwayda, the evacuees were met at designated points by security forces and representatives from the Ministry of Interior. The Syrian Red Crescent then placed the evacuees in shelter centers prepared in the rural outskirts of Damascus. On July 13, clashes erupted between Bedouin Arab tribes and armed Druze factions in Suwayda. Israeli airstrikes followed, targeting Syrian military positions and infrastructure in Damascus. Israel used the pretext that the strikes were intended to protect Druze communities. However, most Druze leaders inside Syria have rejected foreign intervention and reaffirmed their support for a unified Syrian state. Israel’s military actions intensified following the collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s regime in December. After nearly 25 years in power, Assad fled to Russia, ending Baath Party rule in Syria. A transitional administration, led by President Ahmad al-Sharaa, took office in January.
