Arab Tribes Mobilize Toward Sweida - Syria

Arab Tribes Mobilize Toward Sweida - Syria

A new batch of Arab tribesmen, estimated in the thousands, departs from Idlib and its surrounding countryside toward the southern city of Sweida, Syria, on July 18, 2025. The movement is part of a growing mobilization driven by complex tribal dynamics and shifting alliances in the context of Syria’s long-running conflict. Tribal groups play a pivotal role in regional politics and security, often navigating between local authorities, armed factions, and national interests. Their relocation reflects mounting pressure and instability in northern Syria, as well as strategic efforts to assert influence in the Druze-majority region of Sweida. The convoy includes both fighters and civilians, many traveling in vehicles over long distances under difficult conditions. This tribal realignment could have significant implications for local governance, military balance, and social cohesion in southern Syria. Photo by Omar Albaw/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
