In response to the sudden fall of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, U.S. President Joe Biden has unveiled an aggressive strategy to secure stability in the region and counter the growing threat of ISIS. Following Assad's ousting by rebel forces, the U.S. military launched over 75 airstrikes targeting ISIS camps and key infrastructure across Syria, aiming to prevent the terrorist group from exploiting the power vacuum created by Assad's departure. Biden has emphasized the importance of combating terrorism and ensuring ISIS does not re-establish its stronghold in the region. The U.S. has also vowed to support efforts for a peaceful transition in Syria, while continuing to monitor and neutralize any emerging threats.

A shocking act of vandalism unfolded on a bustling Syrian street as a group of radical individuals burned down a towering Christmas tree, sparking outrage across the region. The incident, captured on video, shows the massive tree engulfed in flames, symbolizing growing tensions in an area already fraught with unrest. The HTS (Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham) leadership swiftly condemned the act, promising strict punitive measures against those responsible.
The tree, a symbol of unity and celebration for the Christian minority in Syria, was reportedly set ablaze in a deliberate attack aimed at stirring fear. Community leaders have decried the act as a direct assault on religious harmony, calling for solidarity and peace.

HTS militants have unleashed a terrifying campaign of violence across Syria, with attacks occurring every 10 minutes, primarily targeting minority populations along the coastal regions. Following their rapid takeover on December 8, which ended Bashar al-Assad's 24-year rule, the militants have engaged in widespread looting, kidnapping, assassination, and harassment. Areas like Qardaha, Tartous, and Latakia have been hit hardest, with reports of grisly shootings, throat-slashing, and desecration of religious sites. An information blackout has made it difficult to fully document the scale of the devastation, but protests are surging in response to HTS' brutal tactics. This deadly operation has left a nation in fear, with entire communities now living in constant danger.
