#IsraelSyriaTensions 'There were bodies everywhere': Druze residents describe 'bloodbath' in Syrian city Suweida
Over the last five days, Rima says she has witnessed "barbaric" scenes.
The 45-year-old Druze woman has lived in the southern Syrian city of Suweida her whole life, and never thought her once-peaceful hometown would become the scene of a bloodbath.
"There were bodies everywhere outside our building," she told the BBC in a phone interview, using a pseudonym out of fear for her safety.
Rima said she huddled inside her home, bracing for the unimaginable, as gunmen - government forces and foreign fighters - moved through her neighbourhood earlier this week, going door-to-door looking for their next victim.
"One of the worst feelings ever is to keep waiting for people to come into your house and decide whether we should live or die," she recalled, her voice still trembling with fear.
