In a major development in Syria's ongoing conflict, the Syrian military has announced a "temporary troop withdrawal" in Aleppo as it prepares for a large-scale counteroffensive.
The withdrawal follows heavy clashes with opposition forces, including Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS), who recently launched a surprise attack, taking control of several neighborhoods in the city.
As both sides regroup and reinforce their positions, the question arises: Is this a tactical retreat by the Syrian army, or are they preparing for a decisive push to reclaim the strategic city?
This video dives into the implications of this military shift, the casualties suffered, and the potential for further escalation in the battle for Aleppo.
Stay updated on this ongoing situation and its impact on the future of the region.
Turkish President Erdogan has threatened military action in Syria to prevent its division and eliminate terrorist groups like the PKK and YPG. Turkey aims to maintain Syria’s unity, improve relations with its new government, and oppose international sanctions. The situation risks escalating regional tensions, particularly with Israel over Iran's influence.

Turkish President Erdoğan has issued a stark warning to Kurdish militants in Syria, demanding they lay down their arms or face being "buried" in Syrian soil. This comes amidst escalating tensions with the YPG militia, part of the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which Turkey views as linked to the PKK, a terrorist organization. Erdoğan also announced plans to open a consulate in Aleppo and expects increased border traffic as Syrian migrants begin returning. These developments underscore the evolving political landscape in Syria following Bashar al-Assad's departure.

The year 2024 was marked by several pivotal global events. Donald Trump's return to the U.S. presidency shocked the political landscape, following a fiercely contested election where Kamala Harris, despite Biden's endorsement, failed to secure a victory. In Syria, years of civil war culminated in the fall of President Bashar al-Assad, as rebel forces led by Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, supported by Turkish-backed groups, successfully overthrew his regime. Meanwhile, the world was shaken by multiple deadly plane crashes, including the tragic crashes in Kazakhstan and Jeju Air, which claimed over 200 lives. These events, alongside ongoing conflicts like the Israel-Hamas war and Modi's re-election in India, have defined a tumultuous year that has left lasting impacts on geopolitics and human lives.

A deadly ambush near Syria's Mediterranean port of Tartous resulted in 14 interior ministry personnel killed and 10 injured. The attack was attributed to loyalists of ousted President Bashar al-Assad. It occurred during an operation to apprehend a former officer linked to the notorious Saydnaya prison. Three loyalists also lost their lives in the clash. This comes weeks after rebel forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) ousted Assad, ending decades of family rule. HTS promised to protect minorities but faces global designation as a terrorist group. Tensions continue to rise across the country.

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.
