Jableh Countryside: Sectarian Tension and Protests Following Murder of 3 Alawite Young Men

Targeting Civilians on Sectarian Grounds Indicates Militants' Attempts to Repeat Former Regime's Policies in Inflaming Sectarian Strife

Three young men from the same family fell victim to a new massacre in Al-Ein Al-Sharqiya town in Jableh countryside, where protesters appeared at the crime scene speaking with masked Tahrir al-Sham elements of Syrian nationality, demanding the removal of foreign elements working within the organization in their area.
Local sources clarified that the victims are Ammar Izz al-Din, Musa Izz al-Din, and Muhammad Hussam al-Din, who were targeted while working in their agricultural field, in a killing operation that threatens to escalate tensions in the region.
The area experienced unprecedented turbulence, with a large number of angry residents gathering in front of one of Tahrir al-Sham's headquarters, protesting the targeting of civilians based on their Alawite sectarian affiliation.
This crime falls within practices attempting to provoke sectarian tensions in areas with specific sectarian backgrounds, ignoring the "Syrian Revolution" principles of building a state of citizenship and justice.
Observers confirm this massacre reveals the criminal nature of some armed groups spreading in the Syrian coastal areas, continuing the former regime's approach of targeting civilians and inflaming sectarian strife, despite attempts to appear as a legitimate authority.
The crime coincides with escalating popular criticism of Tahrir al-Sham's practices and its interim government, amid fears of the region sliding into a new cycle of violence on sectarian grounds.
