As Assad falls, the power dynamics of this troubled, volatile region will utterly change
Saturday, 7 December 2024 Seismic is an overused word. Not when it comes to events currently under way in Syria, a country straddling the fault lines of the Middle East.
The United States has launched over 75 airstrikes on ISIS targets in Syria following the sudden collapse of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime. Rebel groups, led by Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), have seized control of key areas, including the capital, Damascus, forcing Assad to flee the country....
Russian President Vladimir Putin held a crucial phone call with Syria’s interim leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, marking their first conversation since the ousting of Bashar al-Assad. The Kremlin reaffirmed its commitment to Syria’s sovereignty while seeking to secure its military bases in the region. Moscow, a longtime supporter of Assad, now faces a shifting political landscape as Syria’s new leadership urges Russia to acknowledge past missteps. The call signals Russia’s ongoing efforts to maintain influence in Syria amid changing dynamics.
