The Syrian city of Deir al-Zawr has fallen under the control of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) militants, marking the third major city to slip from government hands in a week. This dramatic shift follows a series of swift and coordinated HTS offensives, compounded by the withdrawal of U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). Simultaneously, Israel has launched an unprecedented military blitz across Syria, targeting 480 strategic sites within 48 hours, including airports, air bases, and suspected chemical weapons facilities. The dual assault has left the Syrian regime’s military infrastructure severely weakened, raising concerns about regional stability and the broader implications of escalating international involvement.
