As Syria navigates a fragile transitional phase, recent violence targeting the Druze community—sparked by an unverified voice recording—has once again laid bare the country’s unresolved sectarian tensions. From retaliatory killings in Latakia against Alawites to indiscriminate assaults in Sahnaya and Jaramana, the surge in identity-driven violence reflects more than isolated flare-ups; it underscores a systemic failure to address the deep-rooted fissures left by years of conflict and repression.

Join us for a timely discussion on the resurgence of sectarian violence in Syria—what it reveals about the country’s transitional challenges and the urgent steps needed to prevent further escalation.
