Ambush Near Tartous Kills 14 Syrian Security Personnel in Clash with Ousted Assad Loyalist Forces

A deadly ambush near Syria's Mediterranean port of Tartous resulted in 14 interior ministry personnel killed and 10 injured.

The attack was attributed to loyalists of ousted President Bashar al-Assad.

It occurred during an operation to apprehend a former officer linked to the notorious Saydnaya prison.

Three loyalists also lost their lives in the clash.

This comes weeks after rebel forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) ousted Assad, ending decades of family rule.

HTS promised to protect minorities but faces global designation as a terrorist group.

Tensions continue to rise across the country.
