At least 10 Syrian government security personnel were wounded during clashes with local armed groups in the Druze-majority province of Sweida on Monday. The incident follows a period of heightened tension in the region, including reports of two civilian deaths during similar confrontations west of Sweida city earlier this week.

State media reports characterize the local factions as "outlaw groups" responsible for initiating the attacks. Conversely, Druze-affiliated groups have countered these claims, alleging that government forces utilized mortar shells and machine gun fire against civilians during the engagement.
