Anti-government rebels in northern Syria have launched a sudden offensive in an effort to capitalize on Israel’s efforts to weaken Iran’s regional proxies.
After making only limited gains in recent years, they have already captured some 40 towns and villages that were controlled by government forces, as well as a Syrian military base. Coming together for an anti-regime operation, rebels from various factions closed in on Syria’s second largest city, Aleppo on Thursday. Aleppo has been controlled by Assad’s government and pro-Iranian militias since 2016.
Hassan Abdelghani, a spokesperson for the rebel coalition said on Telegram Thursday that the target of the operation is Assad’s forces and Iranian militias, who the rebels accuse of bringing “devastation, death and killing to the region” while “exploiting Arab and Muslim populations” to push their “sabotaging plans” under “the guise of resistance”. Weakened Axis of Resistance Analysts say the rebels are using a vacuum left by a weakened Hezbollah to advance in Syria.
