People: Leaning negative Outlets: Leaning negative

Armed clashes between cousins in the town of Dhiban near Albu Kamal in Deir ez-Zor prompted internal security forces to intervene and impose a curfew, Euphrates Post reported, in a region where commenters describe weak state authority and uncollected weapons since the fall of the Assad regime.

In detail

Euphrates Post and YouTube commentary (برنامج سوريا اليوم) cover armed clashes in Dhiban near Albu Kamal, describing internal security intervention and a curfew, alongside a separate reconciliation session in Mayadin after a prior shooting incident and a drive-by shooting attack on shops in Abu Khashab village. Commenters criticize the 'weak state' for not disarming households, especially former Alawite loyalist areas, and blame continuing tribal disputes on lax enforcement. Some link the unrest to a broader breakdown of security sector reform since the change of government.
