The move sparked criticism and anger toward the Al-Julani regime, with many accusing it of carrying out ethnic cleansing of the Sunni population in a country under Sunni rule. Some even referred to it as a “Sunni Holocaust under an Islamic Sunni regime.”

Others view the incident as a clear defeat and failure of Al-Julani’s regime to subdue the Druze community, unlike his past successes against the Alawites and Christians.

Some are now calling on Al-Julani to resign due to his failure.
