Syria is looking at a deepening sectarian crisis as the HTS-led regime clashed with loyalists of overthrown President Bashar al-Assad. Over 1,300 people, mostly civilians, have been killed including 231 members of security forces and 250 pro-Assad fighters. The counteroffensive was carried against Assad loyalists in the largely Alawite coastal region. Dozens of revenge killings were reported, resulting from Sunni militants targeting the minority Islamic sect.
