Syria looks to carve new future after abrupt end to Bashar al-Assad's 24-year reign
A mountainous task ahead as Syria, battered by almost 14-years of division and fighting under a brutal civil war looks ahead to shape its new future after the end of Bashar al-Assad's 24-year rule.
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has rejected claims that groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis act as proxy forces for Tehran. Speaking on Sunday, Khamenei emphasized that these groups operate independently based on their own interests and decisions, while acknowledging Iran’s support for their causes. Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine, and the Houthis in Yemen are often accused by Western nations of serving as Iran’s regional proxies to expand its influence. However, Khamenei dismissed such accusations, stressing that these organizations are motivated by local grievances and ideological commitments, not Iranian directives.

As the world watches, Syria’s future hangs in the balance.
