VIDEO| Syrian Rebels Claim Full Control of Homs, Calls the Takeover 'Historic' as Assad Flees
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.
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.

Israel faces mounting concerns as the militant group Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) gains significant ground in Syria, raising fears of a potential spillover into Jerusalem. The rapid territorial advances by HTS have destabilized the region, drawing global attention to the intensifying crisis. The situation is further complicated by allegations of U.S. involvement in shaping the conflict to serve strategic interests. As Syria becomes a focal point of competing ambitions, tensions rise over the potential fallout for neighboring nations, including Israel. With international powers grappling to respond, the unfolding conflict has placed the entire region on edge.

The Syrian city of Deir al-Zawr has fallen under the control of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) militants, marking the third major city to slip from government hands in a week. This dramatic shift follows a series of swift and coordinated HTS offensives, compounded by the withdrawal of U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). Simultaneously, Israel has launched an unprecedented military blitz across Syria, targeting 480 strategic sites within 48 hours, including airports, air bases, and suspected chemical weapons facilities. The dual assault has left the Syrian regime’s military infrastructure severely weakened, raising concerns about regional stability and the broader implications of escalating international involvement.
