Iran has accused the United States and Israel of orchestrating the recent jihadist attack in Syria, particularly targeting the Syrian city of Aleppo. Major General Mohsen Rezaei, a former commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), claimed that the assault was part of a broader effort to destabilize the region, extending conflicts from Gaza and Lebanon into Syria. He argued that the attack violated the 2020 ceasefire between the Syrian government and militants. Iran expressed full support for Syria in countering these foreign-backed terrorist actions. Additionally, Rezaei warned that Iran’s retaliatory operation, "True Promise III," would soon take place as a response to Israeli actions, signaling a heightened military escalation.

In a controversial claim, the Kyiv Post reports that Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR) allegedly trained Islamist groups in Syria’s Idlib province, aiding them in attacking Russian forces. The Khimik Group, an HUR Special Forces unit, reportedly provided operational training and tactics, including the use of drones. Militants, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, recently launched their largest offensive in years, capturing parts of Aleppo before being pushed back by Syrian and Russian forces. Moscow has not officially commented on the alleged involvement of Ukrainian operatives in Syria. The development raises concerns over escalating proxy conflicts in the region.

Norway has announced plans to open a new NATO Arctic and amphibious warfare center in the municipality of Sorreisa, located near Russia’s strategic port of Murmansk. This new base will be pivotal in training US, British, and Dutch marines for potential amphibious assaults and military operations in the Arctic region. With heightened tensions between NATO and Russia, especially following Russia's military activities in Ukraine and the Arctic, this move signals a major shift in NATO’s defense strategy. The new hub is expected to be operational by 2026, and it aims to strengthen allied cooperation in the Nordic region. In response, Russia has warned of its readiness to defend its interests in the Arctic. What does this mean for the future of NATO-Russia relations?
