Supporters of the transitional government under the de facto authority led by Al-Julani are sharing photos and videos of food under the hashtag #InSolidarityWithSuwayda as a form of mockery toward the suffering of Suwayda’s residents, who have been under siege for 14 days.

• نتوجه إليكم بأقصى درجات الاستعجال للفت انتباهكم الفوري إلى الكارثة الإنسانية المأساوية التي تتكشف فصولها حالياً في محافظة السويداء، سوريا.
• حتى تاريخ اليوم، تخضع السويداء لحصار خانق متصاعد تفرضه السلطات الحكومية، ما أدى إلى نقص حاد في الموارد الأساسية الضرورية للحياة، بما في ذلك:
• مياه الشرب
• الخبز والمواد الغذائية
• حليب الأطفال
• المواد والمستلزمات الطبية، بما في ذلك الأدوية والمعقمات

⸻

🔎 حقائق رئيسية:
• الحاجة اليومية للسويداء من الطحين تبلغ 100 طن. وبعد تدمير صوامع الحبوب والمطحنة في قرية أم الزيتون على يد القوات الحكومية والعشائرية، ومع استمرار الحصار، أصبح خطر المجاعة وشيكاً للغاية.
• تم تخريب البنية التحتية للمياه بشكل منهجي، بما في ذلك تدمير الآبار في جميع المناطق التي دخلتها القوات. فعلى سبيل المثال، تم تدمير آبار قرية الثعلة التي كانت تزود مدينة السويداء بـ70% من مياه الشرب.
• جميع الخزانات الكبيرة والآبار في المناطق التي سيطرت عليها هذه القوات تم تفجيرها بالألغام أو المتفجرات، أو نهب معداتها.
• يحدث كل ذلك في ظل واحدة من أقسى موجات الجفاف التي شهدتها السويداء، مما أدى إلى نضوب مياه السدود الحيوية مثل سد الجوالين وسد الروم في منطقة ظهر الجبل.
• تم تدمير أكثر من 30 قرية مأهولة بشكل جزئي أو كلي، مما أدى إلى أزمة نزوح واسعة. ويُقدّر عدد النازحين داخلياً حالياً بحوالي 100,000 شخص محرومين من المياه والغذاء.
• الإجراءات المتخذة تعكس نهجاً ممنهجاً ومقصوداً لتجويع وتعطيش السكان المدنيين في السويداء — وهو انتهاك صارخ للقانون الدولي الإنساني ولحقوق الإنسان.

⸻

📌 نطالب وبشكل عاجل بما يلي:
1. الإدخال الفوري لفرق برنامج الأمم المتحدة الإنمائي (UNDP) ومنظمة الأمم المتحدة للطفولة (UNICEF) لإصلاح وإعادة تشغيل مصادر المياه وترميم الآبار والبنية التحتية المتضررة.
2. الاعتراف بأن قدرة الهلال الأحمر العربي السوري غير كافية لمواجهة حجم الكارثة، وبالتالي هناك حاجة ملحة لتدخل إنساني دولي أوسع عبر منظمات تمتلك القدرة على تقديم مساعدات منهجية ومستدامة.
3. فتح ممر إنساني يسمح بإدخال المساعدات الإغاثية والإنسانية بشكل مباشر. هذه ليست قضية سياسية، بل حاجة إنسانية ملحة وأساس من أسس الاستجابة الإنسانية.

⸻

⚠️ ملاحظات هامة:
• لقد تم تحويل طريق دمشق–السويداء إلى أداة سياسية، تُستخدم للضغط على المحافظة عبر قطع تدفق الاحتياجات الأساسية من غذاء وماء ودواء، مما أدى إلى هندسة مجاعة وعطش جماعي كنوع من العقاب السياسي الجماعي.
• إن عدم فتح ممر إنساني هو بمثابة مشاركة في حصار وتجويع وتعطيش المدنيين.

📢 An urgent appeal to the international community: Suwayda Governorate in Syria is facing an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe. For weeks now, the region has been under a suffocating siege imposed by the General Security and Ministry of Defense of the de facto authority, alongside #tribal militias loyal to Al-Jolani’s transitional government. This has resulted in a near-total collapse of essential services and severe shortages of water, food, and medicine.

• We urgently call for your immediate attention to the tragic humanitarian disaster unfolding in Suwayda, Syria.
• As of today, Suwayda has been subjected to an escalating siege imposed by the de facto authorities, leading to an acute shortage of essential resources for survival, including:
• Drinking water
• Bread and food supplies
• Infant formula
• Medical supplies, including medicines and disinfectants

⸻

🔎 Key Facts:
• Suwayda’s daily need for flour is 100 tons. After the destruction of the grain silos and the mill in Umm Al-Zaytoun by government and tribal forces, and with the siege continuing, the risk of famine has become imminent.
• Water infrastructure has been systematically sabotaged, including the destruction of wells in all areas entered by these forces. For example, the Tha’la wells, which supplied Suwayda city with 70% of its drinking water, were destroyed.
• All major reservoirs and wells in areas controlled by these forces were either blown up with explosives or looted.
• This is happening amid one of the harshest droughts Suwayda has ever faced, leading to the depletion of vital water dams such as Al-Jowlan and Al-Roum in Dahr Al-Jabal.
• More than 30 villages have been partially or completely destroyed, leading to a mass displacement crisis. The number of internally displaced persons is currently estimated at 100,000, deprived of water and food.
• These actions reflect a systematic and deliberate policy of starving and dehydrating the civilian population of Suwayda — a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law and human rights.

⸻

📌 We urgently demand:
1. Immediate deployment of UNDP and UNICEF teams to repair and restore water sources and damaged infrastructure.
2. Recognition that the capacity of the Syrian Arab Red Crescent is insufficient to address the scale of this disaster, and therefore, an urgent need for broader international humanitarian intervention by organizations capable of delivering systematic and sustainable aid.
3. The opening of a humanitarian corridor to allow the direct entry of relief and humanitarian assistance. This is not a political issue, but an urgent humanitarian necessity and a core principle of humanitarian response.

⸻

⚠️ Important Notes:
• The Damascus–Suwayda road has been turned into a political weapon, used to pressure the governorate by cutting off the flow of essential food, water, and medicine — effectively engineering famine and mass thirst as a form of collective political punishment.
• Failure to open a humanitarian corridor amounts to complicity in the siege, starvation, and deprivation of civilians.

⸻

📢 We call upon the United Nations and international humanitarian agencies to intervene immediately and assume their responsibility to prevent the starvation, thirst, and suffering of approximately 600,000 besieged civilians in Suwayda, who are left without the basic means of survival.

As a result of the terrorist attack carried out by members of the General Security and Ministry of Defense affiliated with the de facto authority, along with loyal #tribal militias, the region witnessed a large wave of civilian casualties.

Dr. Louay Al-Shoufi, director of Salkhad National Hospital, expressed his gratitude to the medical team and all volunteers who assisted in treating the wounded. He confirmed that the number of civilian injuries was extremely high, ranging from minor to moderate cases, as well as critical injuries requiring emergency surgeries.

✅ In coordination with the Health Directorate, the local community, and grassroots organizations, limited medical supplies were secured to support ongoing medical efforts.

🚫 Major challenges faced by the staff included:
The cutoff of water, electricity, and communications.

🔧 Within just one week:
🔹 More than 36 C-sections
🔹 Around 70 abdominal and orthopedic surgeries
🚨 The number of injured exceeded 400 cases, not including daily walk-ins.
The ICU and emergency departments were at full capacity.

Medical teams worked nonstop to save as many lives as possible, despite damage sustained by the National Hospital.

🤝 There was cooperation between:
Shahba Hospital, Salkhad Hospital, and Seil Hospital,
although access remained difficult due to severe fuel shortages.

❗ The hospital continues to suffer from a critical shortage of essential surgical materials for orthopedic operations (plates, rods, screws), as well as materials for vascular surgeries and a shortage of specialized medical personnel.

📍Location: Suwayda – Qanawat Road (30 meters from the church)
⚠️ Event:

The theft of a grocery and vegetable store owned by citizen Mundhir Muhanna, operating under the name Muhanna Trading, was documented in broad daylight amid widespread security deterioration in the area.

The security breakdown is caused by jihadists affiliated with the de facto authorities from the Ministry of Defense, General Security, and allied jihadist tribes.

⚠️ New testimonies have been added to the record of terrorism led by members of the General Security and the Ministry of Defense affiliated with the de facto jihadist authority, alongside pro-regime jihadist tribal militias.

A barbaric invasion and a bloody assault that did not distinguish between an elder and a child, nor between a woman and a man.
Homes were burned and looted.
Women and children were killed.
The bodies of men and the elderly were burned—some were slaughtered.
Entire families were forcibly displaced.
One survivor said:
“We are now in shelter centers, and we appeal to all international communities to stand with us and help us repel this treacherous aggression.
This is not just an attack… it is a genocide against the Druze community, carried out by terrorist gangs.”

The video documents direct coordination between Abu Mohammad al-Julani’s government and jihadist tribal militias, along with Bedouin groups affiliated with a jihadist unit under the de facto authorities known as the “Red Bands,” in the attack on Suwayda Governorate.

The footage shows Suwayda’s governor, affiliated with al-Julani’s government, Mustafa al-Bakkour, alongside a minister, welcoming one of the tribal fighters. The fighter declares his intention to carry out an “inghimasi operation” – a term used by ISIS to describe its suicide missions
