In a humanitarian move, the Israeli military on Wednesday evacuated three Syrian-Druze citizens from Syria to Israel for urgent medical treatment. This action underscores growing tensions in the region.

Earlier, the Israeli government confirmed conducting a tactical strike in Syria as a response to extremist attacks targeting the Druze community, a minority group facing increasing threats amidst the ongoing conflict.
