Medical sources reported the arrival of 20 bodies, including 4 women, at the Suwayda National Hospital, after being recovered by Red Crescent teams from several villages in the northern and western countryside of Suwayda, including Lahtha, Al-Matouna, and Wulgha.

According to the medical staff, the bodies were in advanced stages of decomposition, with some burned and others mutilated. The victims were civilians from the same villages, as some families were able to identify their relatives based on their clothing shown in circulated photos.

The villages from which the bodies were recovered had been repeatedly raided over the past two weeks by General Security and Ministry of Defense forces affiliated with the de facto authority, along with tribal militias loyal to Al-Julani’s transitional government. These forces had maintained control of the areas, leaving the bodies on roadsides and inside homes, until medical evacuation teams were finally allowed in today.
