The US warns about possible attacks in Syria during the Eid holiday
The United States has warned of an increased possibility of attacks in Syria during the holiday of Eid El-Fitr, which denotes the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Eid could start in Syria on Sunday, depending on the vision of the young moon.
Syrian authorities have announced that in the last few weeks, they have detained several militant cells that have allegedly planned to attack attacks in parts of the country.
Since the rebel groups led by Islamist Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) removed by President Bashar Assad From power in early December, the security situation remained tense. Thousands of civilians were displaced by attacks after Assad was removed from power. Many prepare to celebrate Eid tent camps.

The Islamic State Group, which was mostly defeated in Syria in 2019, still has bedrooms that have taken responsibility for attacks, mainly northeast, controlled by fighters who supported Kurdski under the leadership of the US.
