The Druze community leader, Sheikh Mowafaq Tarif, gave an interview to the ynet studio amid the unrest in southern Syria, and said about President Abu Mohammad al-Jolani that "someone who puts on a tie and jacket changes his stripes? No. He is still a murderer, he is still Hamas, he is still ISIS, the same thing. We've seen this movie before." According to him, "We spoke yesterday with the Prime Minister and Defense Minister. We continue the dialogue. I hope we intensify the strikes. We'll judge him by his actions."
