Syria’s minority sects concerned new government won’t protect them
When Sunni rebels toppled Bashar al-Assad last December, they vowed to form an inclusive Syrian government by March. Sunnis comprise around 75 percent of Syria with the remaining 25 percent made up of minorities like Alawites, Christians, Shiite Muslims, Kurds and Druze. Special correspondent Simona Foltyn met with members of some of these communities and reports from Damascus. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders
