Clashes in Syria Between SAA & HTS Spark Unrest, With Protests & Violence Spreading Nationwide
On December 26, 2024, violent clashes broke out in Syria between remnants of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) militants in the Tartous governorate.
The violence escalated after 14 HTS militants were killed in an ambush, attributed to former government loyalists.
Amid ongoing unrest, protests erupted across Syria, particularly by the Alawite and Christian communities, following incidents like the desecration of an Alawite shrine and the burning of a Christmas tree.
The HTS-led authorities imposed curfews in response, and sectarian tensions continued to rise.

The Syrian Army has evacuated the city of Hama after jihadist forces, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, seized control following intense clashes. The insurgents' victory marks a significant shift in the ongoing conflict, as Hama had remained under government control throughout the civil war. The jihadist leader, Abu Mohammed al-Golani, pledged that there would be no revenge on the city's residents, despite the historical context of Hama's prior uprisings. The Syrian Army's retreat aims to preserve civilian lives and avoid further urban combat, but the loss of this key city is a major blow to President Bashar al-Assad's forces.

The year 2024 was marked by several pivotal global events. Donald Trump's return to the U.S. presidency shocked the political landscape, following a fiercely contested election where Kamala Harris, despite Biden's endorsement, failed to secure a victory. In Syria, years of civil war culminated in the fall of President Bashar al-Assad, as rebel forces led by Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, supported by Turkish-backed groups, successfully overthrew his regime. Meanwhile, the world was shaken by multiple deadly plane crashes, including the tragic crashes in Kazakhstan and Jeju Air, which claimed over 200 lives. These events, alongside ongoing conflicts like the Israel-Hamas war and Modi's re-election in India, have defined a tumultuous year that has left lasting impacts on geopolitics and human lives.

A deadly ambush near Syria's Mediterranean port of Tartous resulted in 14 interior ministry personnel killed and 10 injured. The attack was attributed to loyalists of ousted President Bashar al-Assad. It occurred during an operation to apprehend a former officer linked to the notorious Saydnaya prison. Three loyalists also lost their lives in the clash. This comes weeks after rebel forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) ousted Assad, ending decades of family rule. HTS promised to protect minorities but faces global designation as a terrorist group. Tensions continue to rise across the country.
