A security sweep was underway in the city on Thursday, with a so-called rights monitor saying the targets included “protest organizers” from the Alawite minority.<\/p>\n
Authorities\u00a0called\u00a0“on the residents of the neighborhoods of Wadi al-Dhahab, Akrama not to go out to the streets, remain home, and fully cooperate with our forces\u201d.<\/p>\n
Rami Abdel Rahman, head of the so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), said the two districts of Wadi al-Dhahab and Akrama in Homs are a majority-Alawite community.<\/p>\n
The campaign, he\u00a0said, aimed to search for those who organized or participated in the Alawite demonstrations last week, which the HTS\u00a0considered as incitement against\u00a0its authority.<\/p>\n
Last Wednesday, thousands of people protested in several areas across Syria, including\u00a0Latakia, Tartus, Homs, Hama, and Qardaha, after a video circulated showing an attack on an Alawite shrine in the country\u2019s north.<\/p>\n
In another development last week, the HTS\u00a0terrorist group raided the western province of Tartus, the Alawite heartland.<\/p>\n
Earlier, hundreds of demonstrators protested in the Christian areas of Damascus against the burning of a Christmas tree by the terrorist group near Syria\u2019s Hama.<\/p>\n
