France’s foreign ministry urged all sides to respect a ceasefire announced on Saturday for Syria’s Sweida, where tribal fighters have continued to clash with Druze fighters despite the truce.
“France welcomes the announcement of a ceasefire in the Sweida region. It urges all parties to strictly adhere to it,” the ministry said. “Fighting and violence must cease immediately.”
