Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Russian President Vladimir Putin are at odds over the escalating conflict in Syria.
Erdogan has issued a bold statement predicting victory for Syrian rebels, including jihadist factions, against the Russian-backed government of Bashar al-Assad.
The comments come amid renewed violence in key regions such as Idlib, Aleppo, and Homs, where Russian airstrikes and Assad's forces are battling rebel offensives.
Erdogan accused Moscow of fueling the crisis by supporting Assad's regime, while reaffirming Turkey’s commitment to protecting Syria’s territorial integrity and addressing the “legitimate demands” of the opposition.
The remarks have heightened tensions between Ankara and Moscow, both of which have vested interests in the Syrian war.
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.

Israeli warplanes launched a massive assault on Syria, conducting over 100 airstrikes in a single day, targeting key military and intelligence sites in Damascus, Homs, and Daraa. This aerial offensive follows the collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s regime and comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared the 1974 Disengagement Agreement with Syria null and void, signaling Israel’s intent to occupy the strategic buffer zone near the Golan Heights.
Israeli forces took control of the Mazzeh base on Mount Hermon, while advancing into several towns, including Quneitra and Khan Arnabeh. Israeli military officials issued warnings for residents in areas near the Golan to stay indoors as operations continued.

Syrian rebels have seized full control of Homs, the country's third-largest city and a critical strategic hub, after a swift offensive that left government forces retreating. The fall of Homs marks a significant victory for the insurgents, severing key supply routes between Damascus and Assad's coastal strongholds. Rebels have now entered the capital's suburbs, declaring Damascus "militarily fallen" as reports of gunfire and chaos emerge from the city. President Bashar al-Assad has reportedly fled to an unknown destination, further signaling the regime's crumbling hold on power. This dramatic escalation could mark a turning point in Syria’s 13-year conflict.
