Document says Islam is the religion of the president, as previous constitution did, & Islamic jurisprudence is "the main source of legislation", rather than "a main source", drafting committee. It also enshrines separation of powers and judicial independence, and guarantees women's rights, freedom of expression and media freedom.

It targeted residents mourning a local casualty from previous attacks, though no additional deaths or injuries were reported. Lebanese army said on Wed, had increased patrols & checkpoints along border in coordination w/Syrian authorities to "preserve stability," stated on X account.

The incident comes days after Syria's state media reported that Damascus and Lebanon's Defense Ministry had agreed to halt hostilities along their shared border and strengthen military coordination. However, on Sunday, the Syrian military authorities accused Hezbollah of abducting and killing three of its soldiers, claiming they were taken into Lebanese territory. Hezbollah denied the allegations, calling them "baseless." The Lebanon-Syria border has long been a flashpoint for instability, with frequent reports of smuggling and armed activity. Earlier this year, Syrian security forces launched operations against smugglers and opposition groups in western Homs province as part of efforts to secure the frontier. There was no immediate comment from Syria's interim authorities on Thursday's shelling.

A longtime critic of Bashar al-Assad, Kabawat is one of Syria’s most recognized civil society leaders. She currently serves as Director of Interfaith Peacebuilding at George Mason University’s Center for World Religions, Diplomacy, and Conflict Resolution. Since 2004, she has led interfaith initiatives and trained hundreds of Syrians, especially women, in conflict resolution & negotiation in Syria, Türkiye, Jordan, and Lebanon. Hind Kabawat holds a law degree from Beirut Arab University, a master’s in international relations from Tufts University’s Fletcher School, & additional certificates from the University of Toronto and Harvard University. She founded Syrian Centre for Dialogue, Peace, and Reconciliation in Toronto and served as a senior official at the United States Institute of Peace until 2015.

US says it killed top Houthi missile expert, but questions linger.

WASHINGTON - White House has said that US strikes in Yemen in March killed the Houthis’ top missile expert, but US military has so far declined to confirm the death, & the identity of the Houthi commander in question is unclear. National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, in remarks to CBS News on weekend after March 15 strikes, said the first wave killed “their head missileer”.

Mr Waltz also touted the killing in a secret text chat, disclosed publicly by The Atlantic last week, saying: “The first target – their top missile guy – we had positive ID of him walking into his girlfriend’s building and it’s now collapsed.”
