Violent confrontations near Tal Sheehan were witnessed in the northern countryside of As-Suwayda hours ago, after an attack launched by armed groups from some Bedouin tribes who refused to withdraw from the area, leading to direct clashes with local factions deployed around the hill.
In a notable development, Israeli warplanes dropped illuminating bombs and thermal balloons in the skies of the town of Shahba near the conflict zones, in a move described as reconnaissance or warning, amid escalating tensions in the region adjacent to the frontlines.
Later on, Israeli warplanes carried out an airstrike targeting sites believed to harbor armed groups affiliated with the tribes participating in the confrontations, following the warning bomb drops.
This escalation comes amidst a state of increasing anxiety among the residents of As-Suwayda province, where fears of the conflict spreading to populated areas prevail, while the field conditions remain poised for escalation in the coming hours.
