Suwayda: Israeli aircraft were reportedly flying above Suwayda province in the south of Syria, according to state-run Alikhbaria Syria TV. The channel mentioned in a post on American social media company X that there was "an overflight of Israeli occupation aircraft over Suwayda," without providing details about the objectives or whether any military strikes had occurred, unlike previous instances.

According to Anadolu Agency, the flights occurred shortly after Syrian Foreign Minister Assad al-Shaibani affirmed in posts on X his government's commitment to protecting all components of Suwayda. He rejected attempts to place the Druze community in "a framework of exclusion or marginalization under any pretext." Al-Shaibani's remarks came after a trilateral meeting in Amman with his Jordanian counterpart Ayman Safadi and Washington's envoy to Damascus Tom Barrack.

Since the fall of the Assad regime last December, Israel has targeted military installations, vehicles, and ammunition sites in Syria multiple times. Recently, it intervened in Suwayda under the pretext of "protecting the minority Druze," amid clashes with Bedouin tribes, and has also struck Damascus.
