BBC tries to get killed hundreds of people. The gentle ceasefire is held, but the area remains extremely tense.
On Monday, we hit six miles from Swidda, as close as it was safe.
“There are snipers on the way ahead. This is the biggest danger,” the Syrian army commander warned us.
On the way, we passed through the deserted villages of Druz, which are now under full Syrian government control.
Over the past week, this highway was clearly a battlefield. Shops and businesses were burned. Covered with covered with shell shell.
Every half mph or so we encountered small groups of Syrian army soldiers. Young people, all in black, sipping hot tea, weapons on the sides.
Four days have passed as the Syrian government opened its troops to execute fire.
The goal was to try to put the end of the week of sectarian violence between the religious community of the rubble and the Bedouin tribes who left more than 1000 people of the dead.
So far, the cessation of the fire seems to be holding, but it is gentle.
When we headed south, we collided with hundreds of armed Bedouins, massive on the road.
In their distinctive red -white handkerchief they were in the mood, firing wildly when the Syrian government looked anxiously.
They all said they were ready to take the weapon when the ceasefire stops.
Meanwhile, the Syrian Red Crescent has succeeded in some injuries from Swidda.
At the main hospital of the southern Syrian city, we saw how some wounded were brought.
The 27 -year -old Ahmed was going to crutches, still in his Syrian army, but his left foot is heavily tied.
“The rocket moving the grenade exploded, and I was hit by Shrapnel,” he said, trying.
“I want to do something understandable when we entered the Suwida, the houses before us were burned, the bodies of the children were burned, the children with the cut heads were cut off,” the young solider said.
“The situation was outside the imagination.”
BBC could not check their claims.
Outside the hospital, I talked to Bermavi, coordinator of the Syrian Red Crescent.
Calling the situation “catastrophic”, she said there was a lack of medicines and first aid kits.
“We need too many operations,” she added.
She just managed to bring some wounded from Suweida province, but she said that on this day it was probably too dangerous to try another medical evacuation because snipers fired at ambulances.
So, what awaits the future for Syria?
Last week there was the most serious sectarian violence after the Syrian uprising that brought the Islamist leader Ahmed al-Sharaa to power at the end of last year.
It happened after a decades of the dictatorship under Assad mode.
“We all need to work more in Syria and be combined,” the Minister of Combating Catastrophes and emergency response told me, to the asylum for displaced people in the Soveid province.
“We have a lot of problems, but we also have great hope,” he said.
“There are wise men in our communities, so I believe that we can overcome this complex phase, and we can achieve peace and justice.”
But on the way to the city of Sweaido, we did not witness this.
