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.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that the Golan Heights would remain "forever an inseparable part" of Israel, cementing the controversial annexation of the strategic region. This bold proclamation came as Israeli troops moved decisively to seize control of the Golan buffer zone, breaching the 1974 disengagement agreement.
Netanyahu justified the advance, stating that the agreement had “collapsed” following the retreat of Syrian troops, leaving the area vulnerable to terrorist activity and heavy weapons. Israeli forces have now taken control of key strategic sites, including the Syrian side of Mount Hermon.

Hezbollah has vowed retaliation against Israel following a series of deadly airstrikes in Syria that targeted military infrastructure and claimed numerous lives. The Iran-backed group condemned the attacks, accusing Israel of expanding its occupation in the Golan Heights and destabilizing the region. With Israeli forces advancing into buffer zones and seizing strategic Syrian territories, tensions are escalating. Hezbollah’s strong stance signals a potential escalation, as it pledges unwavering support for Syria and its people amid the aftermath of Bashar al-Assad’s ouster. The region braces for possible confrontations as rhetoric intensifies on both sides.

In a dramatic turn of events, the Syrian opposition flag was raised at the Syrian Embassy in Moscow on Monday, marking a symbolic blow to Bashar al-Assad's rule. A group of men, standing on the embassy balcony, proudly raised the green, red, black, and white flag while singing and clapping, as snow fell around them. This momentous act came just hours after reports confirmed that Assad, along with his family, had fled Syria and sought asylum in Moscow following the collapse of his regime.
Russian authorities, including police officers, were seen at the embassy's entrance as the flag was hoisted, signaling a significant shift in Syria's political landscape. A representative from the Syrian embassy confirmed that operations were continuing under the new flag. Meanwhile, a Kremlin source revealed that Assad’s arrival in Moscow occurred on Sunday, following a lightning offensive by rebel forces that led to the fall of Damascus and the end of the 13-year civil war.

In a fiery speech, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has condemned the fall of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, labeling it as a carefully orchestrated plot by Western powers, specifically the United States and Israel. Khamenei also pointed fingers at Turkey, a neighboring country of Syria, which he claims played a crucial role in supporting anti-Assad forces.
Khamenei’s comments reflect his deep concern over the weakening of the Iran-led "Axis of Resistance," a coalition that opposes U.S. and Israeli influence in the Middle East. The fall of Assad is seen as a significant setback for this alliance, with Iran having invested billions in supporting Assad's government throughout the Syrian civil war
