Close to a year after the overthrow of the regime of former President Bashar al-Assad, the situation in Syria remains far from stable, with the new Islamist-led Interim Government failing to resolve any of the country’s internal conflicts or external challenges.
The situation is especially tense in the southern governorate of al-Suwayda, where clashes between government forces and the Druze National Guard have been taking place along the frontlines in the northern and western countryside on a daily basis.
Government forces began using drones in its attacks in recent days, forcing the National Guard to suspend work at schools in al-Suwayda on October 21. On the same day before, an increase in Israeli aerial activities over the governorate was noted.
Meanwhile in the north and east of the country, de-escalation between the government and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) was short lived.
Government forces opened all entrances to the Kurdish Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafieh neighborhoods in the city of Aleppo on October 22. However, later on the same day, a drone launched by government forces struck a checkpoint of the SDF’s security forces in the town of Dayr Hafir in the eastern countryside of the governorate. The group responded by targeting a bulldozer of government forces with a drone.
The government and the SDF are yet to reach a real agreement on integration. In fact, sides appear to be buying time to prepare for war.
The situation also remains insatiable in the northern governorate of Idlib, the former stronghold of the rebels who overthrew the Assad regime.
On October 22, government forces launched an operation against Firqat al-Ghuraba, a small group of European jihadists led by famous French terrorist Omar Diaby, in the town of Harem in the northern Idlib countryside. In response to the operation, foreign jihadists in Idlib, including Uzbek and Uyghurs, mobilized. The government quickly backed down, halting the operation and initiating talks with Diaby.
In addition to all of this, tensions are brewing along the coast in the western Syria. On October 22, government forces deployed reinforcements along the beach in the governorate of Latakia, amid rumors of a near uprising by Alawite rebels.
The government failure to resolve any of Syria’s internal conflicts, as well as its inability to confront Israel, could soon lead to the renewal of war. Multiple battles could break out simultaneously by the end of the year, at least with the SDF and Druze. An invasion by the Israeli military can’t be also ruled out. In fact, the military announced on October 22 that it had concluded drills mimicking defensive and offensive operations along the front with Syria.

just hat the zionist pigs want then they have an excuse to invade and steal more land.
the goal was always to return the shah to power, and as long as iraq was linked to hezbollah, this could not happen.
the king of kings that’s the shahs title .possibly centuries before they set up first egypt as the first pharoah ,then rome ,then the little british innocents .would you like a stone of scone with a cup of chinese tea whilst you smell the arabian roses 🌹🌹 sweety ?
hahaha always the same reverse perverse from the headless goon .
putler is erdogan’s servant, which is why i call slavs slaves.
don’t be silly unbelievable .really just so
they both serve the jews. putin puts on the funny tiny jew had the yarmukle and humps the wailing wall. he let a. ss ad wait when he asked for help didnt activate his air defences so iran could send in reinforcements by airlift. they needed the russian air protection to land safely.
erdogan still supplies israel with oil from azerbaijan and all raw materials. none of these shabbosgoy did anything to push back against these jewish demons. what syria needs is a socialist nationalist government.
calling the betrayal pragmatism is how the russians defend their dirty betrayal on globalresearch. transparent demagogy.
abracadabra what’s did they put in your brew ? organic cow stew?
the russians called their dirty betrayal of syria pragmatism on globaresearch. this is how they defend their support for the terrorist hts. now the criminal putler will give weapons to hts so that they can attack lebanon.
you can’t seem to speak the truth no matter what….good luck with following the father of lies and his false promises. eternity is a long time to regret your choice. enjoy your time on this earth because you will regret the next destination.
satan takes care of his own .they would hate heaven ,it would be a hell to them .they re often ,believe it or not beneath their bravado being eaten away with sub conscious guilt that they repress with booze and positive programming celebrating materialism as their substitute for love
you’ll upset the crimean crew with that disloyal anglophile aggressions .shame shame shame .off you your chambers with no supper for you .
boo who
thanks to coward backstabber putin!!!
heheheh
to the shiteater commenting as several people here: it is the syrians who betrayed syria not the russians. the masses of brainless sunnies indoctrinated by ksa and turkey cia orchestrated wahhabism and arab spring riots started and ended it. of course they are clueless what to do now, it is always too easy to destroy, the hardest is to build something. that is what separates men from scum and brainless masses, just check the map, how israel is spreading all over the me…
not so it’s their elders that lead them astray all under the same umbrella of operations .it’s brainwashing fundamentally that they use to control war and peace.
turnover .typical .business as usual ..death and destruction like shiva me timbers me hearties and unfurl the skull and bones .
usa-nato is going to “explode” inside mother russia’s brown starfish…heheheh…
que se matem até o último. o mundo agradecerá.
rojava of kurdistan
has a lot of water
has a lot of oil
kurdistan selling oil & water
and buying heavy weapons which will be used against turkey and syria
kurds wanted to create 3 countries.
1.iraq kurdistan 2012 (ok)
2.syrian kurdistan rojava2016(ok)
3.turkey’s kurdistan (still on process)
if the turks do not expel
(10 million) the kurds from anatolia like the armenians,
the next country is turkey.
turks are not even a race or nationality they are mixxed greeks,armenians, assyrians with some turkic settler dna who islamized the anatolian peninsula. what turkey needs is a removal of all jewish influence over its leadership.
israel uses the kurds to divide and conquer they want a greater kurdistan to weaken all other countries in the region and give greater israel a protected flank on the euprates. its time to see what these kurds are doing they are turkic jews for all i see them
all the planet except the anglozionazi $atanic filth are looking forward to the coming total destruction of the khazarian zionazi sewer in occupied palestine when the evil bea$t nut’nyahoo takes on iran for the next and last time. the devil entity must be erased from the earth.
this has all been orchestrated by the jooz over many years to serve their interests. kurds and druze are just zionist stooges to serve their own ends. the idea that the genocide merchants of gaza care about moslems and goyim is beyong laughable, it is obscene.
