AMIGOS DE ISRAEL - CORDOBA (ARGENTINA)

 17 Syrian Druze will undergo firefighter training in Israel and return home prepared to protect their communities with vital lifesaving skills, set up their own fire station, and even receive their own fire truck.

This initiative comes in the wake of a wave of atrocities beginning in July 2025, when Sunni Islamist extremists and Bedouin militants, aided by Syrian government forces, carried out a wave of atrocities against Druze and Christian religious minorities in Sweida, southwest Syria, including massacres, sexual violence, and kidnapping.

Israeli-Druze are an integral part of Israeli society, and now Israel has strengthened the Druze in Syria by helping them gain the skills and resources to safeguard their communities.
