Syrian government forces allegedly violated a
ceasefire by shelling several areas of the southern city of Suwayda, killing at
least two people and wounding more than 20 others, several critically, the
Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Friday.
Artillery and gunfire from government and allied
positions targeted the Tal Hadid axis, the industrial area on the Al-Thaala
road, and the towns of Umm Al-Zaytoun and Al-Matouna from Thursday night into
the early hours of Friday, the Observatory said.

National Guard forces returned fire in line with the
ceasefire arrangements, while clashes continued along the Tal Hadid-industrial
area axis and explosive-laden drones struck the western front.
A ceasefire has been in effect in Suwayda since July
2025 after clashes between Druze factions and Bedouin tribes, reportedly backed
by elements of the Defense and Interior ministries, which, according to SOHR,
killed 2,064 people and wounded many others.
