unknown cleric
The unknown cleric was in the news following a wave of sectarian violence in Syria that erupted after an audio clip, allegedly featuring him insulting the Prophet Muhammad, circulated on social media. Despite his denial of the accusations and the Interior Ministry's findings suggesting he was misidentified, the incident sparked attacks by armed Sunni extremist groups against Druse communities, leading to significant unrest and a rising death toll.
