The “#Save the Bedouin_Al -As -Suwayda” tag is issued by social media platforms in Syria, after the spread of videos said to document the killing and injury of dozens of civilians from Bedouin Sweida, after attacks by armed groups outside the rule of law.
The Syrian News Agency (SANA) reported that after the implementation of the terms of the agreement in the endosperm announced by the Ministry of Interior, and assigning some local factions and sheikhs of reason to maintain security in the province, armed groups stormed the Maqous neighborhood and committed massacres and severe violations against civilians. Local sources indicated to the agency that these groups attacked the neighborhood, carried out killings against women and children, and a field liquidation of a number of people from the region of the tribes and the Bedouins, which led to a large number of victims killed and wounded.
The scenes coming from the communication platforms sparked a widespread controversy over the authority responsible for these violations against Bedouins of As -Suwayda. Where Twitter described what happened as a “massacre against civilians and forced displacement that amounts to a public war crime” accusing Israel of supporting a specific group and interfering in the events after its aggression against Syria yesterday, Wednesday.
Others pointed out that the militias returned to As -Suwayda after the withdrawal of the Syrian army and raised a banner on it the star of David on the governorate building, stressing that the attacks resulted in the killing of dozens of civilians and field executions against the sons of the Syrian tribes.

Tweeters demanded the protection of the tribesmen, considering that they are an inherent part of the Syrian state, and called for not to turn the country into an yard of liquidating internal accounts or external interference.
He also called on foreign press bloggers to carry out its duty to document the crimes and violations currently committed in As -Suwayda, with the same enthusiasm that it shows in covering other issues.
This is not true. There are massacres committed now. Please and do the duty as a guarantor party. The agreement was completely vetoed, and this is defective and unacceptable.

Others questioned the recent agreement sponsored by the United States, considering that it was “just a trick to secure a cover for a specific group to control the endosperm and expel the Bedouins and other social components, in preparation for the establishment of a separatist entity with Israeli -American support.”
Group and killing of the people of Swedish Bedouins and children are very indescribable and indescribable scenes.

Activists expressed their deep regret after watching the painful clips that document the killings, especially for women and children, stressing that these crimes are established for a new stage of hatred and revenge between the components of society, and that the Syrian people are longer than any occupier, and these crimes will remain a stigma in the collective memory.
Others called on the Syrian state to assume its responsibilities in protecting all its citizens without discrimination, and the need to put an end to any laws outside the law that threatens the safety of citizens, their lives and property, stressing that silence or failure in such circumstances is not acceptable, but rather encourages repeated chaos and violations.
The withdrawal of the Syrian army from As -Suwayda was a fatal strategic mistake, leaving the field open to Israel’s militias to wreak corruption on the ground, targeting civilians without deterrent.
This withdrawal sent a wrong message, which these groups picked out as a victory, which increased their audacity and confidence in the persistence. He was…
