A powerful but little-known minority is at the heart of Syria's latest crisis. Deadly clashes have erupted between the Druze community and the Syrian government, following the abduction of a Druze merchant in Suweida. As violence spirals, Israel has carried out airstrikes, claiming to protect the Druze, triggering regional backlash and global concern. The Druze, who follow a secretive offshoot of Islam, are spread across Syria, Israel, Lebanon and beyond. Deeply divided over the new regime, some have called for resistance, while others warn against foreign interference. As Syria struggles to rebuild after Assad's fall, this rising sectarian conflict could tear it apart once again.
