Three people were killed in clashes with security forces in Latakia province, Syria, according to state media. The violence erupted near the coastal city of Jableh, an area known as a stronghold of the Alawite minority and the former base of ousted leader Bashar Al-Assad. Authorities described those killed as remnants of the previous regime, while several security personnel were also wounded. The region has seen ongoing unrest since Assad's removal, including a deadly massacre of Alawite civilians in March, with casualty figures ranging from over 1,400 to more than 1,700.
