On Thursday, June 11, 2015 an activist group and a Syrian opposition faction said that al-Qaida's affiliate in Syria has killed at least 20 Druze after a confrontation in the northwestern Idlib province, where the jihadi group has forced hundreds of members of the minority sect to covert to Sunni Islam.
