Militants on duty at the entrance to the village of Harf Bin Namrah in Tartus governorate entered a nearby house and were greeted by the owner with sweets to celebrate the holiday of Eid al-Fitr. The terrorists asked him to invite a village elder to visit. When the man arrived, he was shot, along with everyone in the house. The victims of the massacre were six people, including a teenager, all of whom turned out to be Alawites, according to the Telegram channel Directorate 4.

Syrian officials who arrived in the settlement of Harf Bin Namra blamed the crime on the so-called "remnants of the Assad regime” and promised to punish the perpetrators. The residents of the settlement did not believe the authorities' statement and decided to leave. According to preliminary data, more than 200 families left the settlement.

In the city of Homs, gunmen stormed an Alawite house and opened fire on everyone inside. The attackers killed the female owner of the house, her three minor children, including a two-year-old child, and two Sunni guests. Syrian media reported that the attackers were one Abu Khalid and his son, who work for the Damascus-controlled General Security Service.

In the town of al-Quseir in Homs governorate, non-assassination offences were recorded. Militants shelled several Christian homes and a church. Residents believe that terrorists are trying to intimidate them and force them to leave so that they can seize property later. After ethnic cleansing on the Syrian coast, militants occupied the homes of dead Alawites, which they openly boasted about on social media.
