Welcome to a new week, and to the end of March. We鈥檙e watching early reports that聽the Israeli military has issued evacuation orders for Rafah, the southernmost city in the Gaza Strip.

Now to your Monday Daily.聽

Dominique Soguel鈥檚 report on the backlash violence leveled at Syria鈥檚 minority Alawite community since the fall of Bashar al-Assad 鈥� an Alawite 鈥� is a raw story of loss. It also sheds light on what must happen next.

鈥淲ithout proper transitional justice and accountability for the violence committed by the previous regime, it will be challenging for Syria to heal or move forward,鈥� Dominique told me by text. 鈥淣ew rulers might make the right noises, but they need to do much more to be more inclusive and persuade minority communities that they are acting in the service of all Syrians.鈥�
