Around 250 undocumented immigrants at the Beguinage Church in Ste. Catherine Square, Brussels are seeking for residence in the country. The immigrants turned the church into a camp and went on a hunger strike as the government responded negatively to their asylum-residence demands. They are waiting for the government to take action and make legal regulation. The European Union (EU) is preparing a new asylum package.

Although a new agency for migration is foreseen to be established, it is not expected that immigrants’ residence demands will be met positively in short term.

Arab Tribes Mobilize as Clashes Erupt Again in Syria’s Sweida

0

Clashes between Druze armed groups and Bedouins have reignited in Sweida, southern Syria, prompting Arab tribes from various regions to head toward the area in support of the Bedouins.

Fighting intensified last night following a Druze assault, with convoys of tribesmen advancing in vehicles. Local sources report ongoing clashes west of the city.

The Syrian Interior Ministry stated that government forces have not deployed to Sweida and remain on standard alert. However, an unnamed Israeli official said Israel has agreed to allow limited Syrian government access to the area for 48 hours due to instability.

Despite efforts by Syrian President Ahmed al-Shara to reduce tensions, the violence has escalated, with hundreds reportedly killed.
