Where Syria President Ahmed al-Sharaa’s Forces Mobilize; Death & Destruction Follows
The southern Syrian city of Suwayda has been enduring a wave of attacks from Islamist militias turned Syrian national army. Dozens are dead and churches have been burned.
Today One Free World International (OFWI) is releasing a urgent report “Syria’s New Chapter: A Perilous Dawn for Minorities Under Al-Sharaa's Rule.”
