🕋 Why this Happens: Intra-Islam Sectarian Violence
-
These killings are not conflicts between different religions, but intra-Islamic sectarian violence:
-
Sunni extremist groups (e.g. ISIL, Al‑Nusra, HTS) targeted groups considered heretical: Yazidis, Druze, Alawites, Shia, among others.
-
Sectarian ideology often labels minorities (e.g. Shi’a, Druze) as apostates or infidels, justifying violence in extremist theology.
-
Not all victims are Muslims; some groups like Yazidis are non-Islamic but seen as heretical. Most of the violence was carried out by extremist factions within the broader Muslim milieu.
🔍 Key Takeaways
-
Yazidis and Kurds suffered large-scale atrocities primarily at the hands of ISIL.
-
Druze have recently endured the deadliest intra-Muslim massacres in Syria, with reports of up to ~1,400 killed.
-
Alawites were targeted in retaliatory campaigns after Assad’s fall, with over 1,300 reported deaths.
-
Smaller sectarian massacres (e.g., Hatla, Adra) also claimed dozens of lives among Muslim minorities.
