Syrian Government-Affiliated Forces Raid Village, Abduct Four Young Men
———————————————-
Armed groups loyal to the Syrian government of Julani raided the village of Al-Ghour al-Gharbiya in the countryside of Homs province, abducting four young men, local sources reported.

According to Shia Waves Persian, the incident occurred after the young men refused to vacate their homes and hand them over to Julani’s administration. The abductions have fueled growing concerns among families and villagers, who say the move is part of a broader campaign of pressure on religious minorities in the region.

Homs province, located in central Syria, is home to a significant minority population, with around 80,000 residents in the city of Homs and surrounding villages. Many families have already been displaced over the past years due to violence and insecurity.

Local observers warn that such actions risk further destabilizing minority communities already struggling with displacement and loss of property.
