Syria's Bedouin tribes said they withdrew from the Druze-majority city of Sweida on Sunday, following a US-brokered ceasefire declaration announced a day prior. Their withdrawal comes after days of clashes that began last Sunday between Druze militias and Sunni Bedouin tribes in Sweida,

The Bedouins are traditionally nomadic, Arabic-speaking tribes who have inhabited the deserts of the Middle East and North Africa for centuries.
