Despite making up only 10% of the country’s population, the #Alawites exerted outsized influence during the #Assad family’s >50-yr rule. The Alawites, who practice an offshoot of #Shiite Islam, dominated the #RulingClass & upper ranks of the #military under Assad.
The new govt called on all members of Assad’s forces to relinquish their ties to the fmr govt & surrender their weapons at “reconciliation centers.” While thousands have taken part in that process, some…have not.
