Sheikh Akl of the Druze monotheistic Muslim community, Hamoud Al-Henawi, called on the people of Jabal Al-Arab and the free people of Syria to unite and stand firm in the face of the siege imposed on the province of As-Suwayda, stressing that “the battle has become an issue of existence and fate for all the people of the mountain.” This came in a statement issued today, Saturday, August 9, 2025, by Darat Sheikha Al-Aql in the ostracism of Al-Balata.
Al-Henawi accused the transitional authority and its supporters of “abandoning covenants and values” and turning them into “a sword slung on the necks of the innocent,” accusing them of “selling the homeland in the bargaining market.” He also admonished some clans, questioning the “absence of chivalry and loyalty,” and recalling the history of the mountain in resisting the Ottoman and French occupations.

He pointed out that As-Suwayda faces a siege that includes food, medicine and fuel, in addition to the destruction of infrastructure, but “it will remain steadfast and majestic.” He called on the people to join hands and share a living, stressing that the issue has turned into a “battle for survival”, and vowing to defend the blood of martyrs and the rights of prisoners and missing persons.
Al-Henawi thanked the supporting countries and peoples, led by Sheikh Mowaffaq Tarif, calling on the international community to lift the siege, open humanitarian corridors, and investigate crimes against the community. He also warned against sedition and rumors, denying the existence of any agreements or communication about what was raised, denouncing the insult to religious symbols and the Arab silence and media blackout on the events of As-Suwayda.
He concluded his statement by renewing the covenant on steadfastness, stressing that “the mountain will remain unbreakable until victory and near relief are achieved.”
