The town of Saqba in the countryside of Damascus witnessed a major tension this evening following an individual altercation between two young men from different families, one from Saqba and the other from the area.
This simple clash between the youth escalated suddenly, as some relatives gathered in the Tiran area and fired shots in the air in response to the incident.
There were rumors circulating about a group of young men from Deir ez-Zor entering the town, causing some to talk about a dangerous escalation. However, local sources confirmed that the situation was individual and did not go beyond a fight between two young men. Reports of women being involved in the incident are false, as some are trying to sow discord and spread rumors.
Thanks to the intervention of the elders of Saqba and the town's dignitaries, the situation began to move towards a resolution, with security forces working in cooperation with the local community to calm the situation and hold the wrongdoers accountable.
The incident reportedly started with a dispute over a bakery in the town, which then escalated to involve multiple parties. However, with everyone's efforts, the situation was contained, and calm is gradually returning.
Official sources confirmed that the incident was an isolated brawl, reassuring everyone that the situation is now under control and the area is safe.
There was a warning against those seeking to sow discord and division through misleading comments, emphasizing that all the residents of Saqba are ultimately brothers.
Calm is returning to Saqba, with ongoing efforts to achieve security and stability in the area.
