Sunni jihadist groups operating under the new regime Syria are reported to have abducted Kurdish women fighters and subjected them to sexual enslavement, following ideological practices long promoted by jihadist doctrine.
According to regional sources, these groups explicitly justify their actions by citing early Islamic precedents, treating such crimes as religiously sanctioned behavior.
Security assessments warn that in the coming weeks these jihadist factions may attempt to systematically eliminate or forcibly subjugate minority communities, including Druze, Alawites, Christians, and Kurds.
The reported strategy includes mass violence against those who resist and extortion schemes targeting Christian communities, demanding protection payments in exchange for temporary survival.
