Over a month after the fall of the Assad regime, the war in Syria is still far from being over mainly due to foreign interventions.
In the north of the country, the Turkish conflict with the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) continues to heat up.
The focal point of the conflict is the eastern Aleppo countryside. On January 8, Turkish drone strikes hit a convoy including first responders and civilian pro-SDF protesters that was heading towards the Tishreen Dam. The strikes killed five people and left at least 14 others wounded.
On the same day, the SDF targeted a Turkish military base near the town of al-Araishah in the northern al-Hasakah countryside, killing a soldier and wounding another.
The next day, January 9, fighters from the Turkish-backed Syrian National Army (SNA) launched an attack in the direction of Tishreen Dam under the cover of Turkish airstrikes. However, the attack was repelled by the SDF.
The conflict moved to the northern Raqqa countryside later on the same day, with at least four Turkish airstrikes hitting the al-Khatuniya silos, the power station in the town of al-Jarnia and a vehicle that was passing nearby. No casualties were reported however.
Preparing for a possible surprise attack by the SNA, the SDF deployed on January 10 large reinforcements in the northern al-Hasakah countryside, including special forces, drone operators and anti-aircraft weapons.
In eastern Syria, the United States-led coalition, which backs the SDF, continues to expand its presence.
On January 5, a large U.S. military supply convoy entered a key base near the town of Qasrak in the eastern al-Hasakah countryside. On January 7, four helicopters carrying supplies landed in the Khrab al-Jir airstrip in the eastern countryside of the province. A supply convoy also entered the base on the same day. The next day, January 8, a military cargo plane also landed there.
On January 9, U.S. forces based in the Green Village base within the al-Omar oil fields in the southeastern Deir Ezzor countryside fired flares and fighter jets were spotted flying over the area.
Meanwhile in southern Syria, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) continues to expand its military operations with no reaction from the country’s new government.
Between January 5 and 8, Israeli troops stormed multiple towns in the southern countryside of al-Qunitra, including al-Asha, Abu Ghara, Kudna, al-Hadar and al-Hamidiya. The troops destroyed several bases of the now-dissolved Syrian Arab Army, inspected houses, displaced some of the locals and collected weapons from them.
The war in Syria is not over yet. There could be a new round of fighting, particularly in the north and south.

my senseless gibbering is never over
god bless you and your jenkem!
thanks for voting for my senseless gibberish!!!
the coup was conducted by rebels supported by turkey since the assad regime was blocking the qatar-turkey pipeline project.
you and your fake names make quite a chorus.
you and your fake names make quite a chorus.
we’re all having such fun .
🇺🇦=👎🤡 😆😆😆
volodolf zelli the pig master
hehehehe hehehe
why shouldn’t cubans marco rubio and ted cruz go after cuba?
libyan scenario in syria. i wouldn’t be surprised if israel supplied weapons to the kurds against erdogan.
they do they need the kurds to win and create their own ethno state because they want to use them as a buffer state to protect their flank once they take over everything upto the euphrates and exterminated and expelled all the arabs there.
its the yinon plan of divide and conquer in full motion and the turkish cancer and kurdish oil thiefs are making it all possible they both are shabbos goy traiders. juu helpers and betrayers of syria and the syrian people
what else do u suggest, we join the new al-quida government?
we’d rather bet on whether sf is really right and gang go after sisi and not maduro as i think.
hehehehe .what gibberish is that? are you off your meds.?

go read it for your self what is happening in syria and the middle east is israels divide and conquer plan. the plan the zionist jews have to achieve regional dominance and to annex lands of all peoples in the middle east
their goal is to cleanse these lands from their native inhabbitants and annex them to their colonial jewish state. everything in syria is being destroyed by these turkish backed jihadists because they are the jewish broom to clear the land for jewish settlement. there for the turks turkey erdogan and aliyev are guilty of aiding israel in achieving its ethnic geno goals in the middle east.
btw its ok for u guys to force an ethno arab state on us but we are not allowed to live freely on our own land? so basically we have to choose between an baathist arab state, an extremist al-qeada state or live freely as kurds (while serving as a jewish buffer state). i take the latter any day.
thank you captain obvious. is the pope catholic?
obviously it hasn’t even started .
tiger force will come to rescue 😀
yes your ass, when kurds reach ankara the apes town.
la siria è di israele, fuori i turchi e lo yemen deve smettere di sparare sarà distrutto se continua, iran ha perso, si deve occupare a realizzare il corridoio nord sud e basta, lavorate.
the jews and their neocon cronies are crowing over the destruction of syria. but they need to remember 2 iron laws of wars in the middle east. 1. those who start them never achieve their objectives. 2. every war leads to another one as soon as they finish that is worse than the first. war with the kurds, war with iran is brewing, with all these vultures scheming and plotting against one another like rats in a sack.
they know this and it may not seem so but america always achieve their geopolitical & strategic objectives. russia, saddam dead & iraq major oil producer is fractured along sectarian lines, syria, israelis annexed land, hezbollah defeated and we loaded taiwan, destroyed europes economy, germany it’s industrial economy for the benefit of corporate american interests! iran nxt but then china they may defeat next if makes a miscalculation down the line
easier said than done however, specifically when the tellacasting has been going on for so long, all but the syrian optometrist saw it come…if you believe that.
it’s over for russians, true. 🇷🇺=🏃♂️🤡 😆😆😆
well, i can hardly take southfront seriously after they published a pro-nato article about the “assad dictator and his luxury living wife”.
russia is beefing up iran’s defences. iran will say – give us what we need, or we’ll go nuclear. expect to see su35s and s400s pouring into iran. forget about syria becoming a tame neocon vassal state. it will be more violent than ever, israel/kurds/iran/hezbollah/russia/us/turkey making all kinds of weird deals among themselves over the corpse of syria then backstabbing each other 5 minutes later. erdogan will say – let me crush the kurds or i’ll allow iran to resupply hezb.
erdogan and israel just conspired to destroy syria but they will soon be at each other’s throats. erdogan will try to play off russia/iran/hezb. against israel to get his own way. syria certainly isn’t going to be a quiet and boring place. they may all soon be saying, come back bashar, all is forgiven.
