🔴 Introduction: Syria Under Attack—A New Chapter in the War of Wills

In the grand war on the Axis of Resistance, nothing happens by coincidence.

🔺 Al-Qaeda’s affiliates, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, have launched a significant offensive against Syrian Army positions near Aleppo.

🔺 The timing is calculated, coinciding with a lull on the southern Lebanese front.

🔺 The objectives are clear: to weaken Syria, scatter the Axis of Resistance, and force new dynamics on the battlefield.

But Syria is no passive player in this game. The Axis of Resistance understands these moves and sees through their long-term implications.

🎯 In this thread:

Who is orchestrating this escalation?

Why is Aleppo the chosen target?

How does this fit into the broader regional war?

This is not just a skirmish—it’s a new chapter in the ongoing battle of wills.

1️⃣ What’s Happening?

📍 Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, a rebranded al-Qaeda faction, has launched a large-scale attack on Syrian Army positions near Aleppo.

📍 The group briefly seized several key areas using coordinated tactics, supported by advanced weaponry.

📍 The Syrian Army responded swiftly, aiming to regain control while facing complex battlefield dynamics.

2️⃣ Who Is Behind This Escalation?

⚠️ No attack of this scale happens without external backing and geopolitical calculation:

🇹🇷 Turkey:Uses armed groups as proxies to advance its territorial ambitions in northern Syria.

Seeks to establish a permanent buffer zone and leverage militant groups for political gain.

Keeps Hayat Tahrir al-Sham as a bargaining tool for future negotiations.

🇺🇸 United States:While officially claiming to fight terrorism, the U.S. has long relied on chaos in Syria to weaken Russia and Iran.

Maintains its grip on eastern Syria’s resources to prevent national recovery.

Allows these offensives to serve as indirect pressure on Damascus.

🇮🇱 Israel:Exploits instability to weaken the Syria-Iran-Hezbollah axis.

Uses such distractions as cover to launch airstrikes on strategic positions.

Ensures Syria remains entangled in multiple crises, diverting attention from Lebanon and Palestine.

3️⃣ Why Aleppo?

Aleppo is no ordinary city—it is the symbol of Syria’s resilience and its recovery from devastating battles.

📍 Attacking Aleppo achieves several strategic goals:

Threatens the security of one of Syria’s key urban centers.

Forces the Syrian Army to overstretch its defenses.

Disrupts the fragile economic revival that Aleppo represents.

The city’s significance makes it a prime target for those seeking to destabilize Syria at its core.

4️⃣ Why Now? Timing Is Everything.

This escalation coincides with critical regional developments:

⏳ Lull in Lebanon: After the recent clashes between Hezbollah and Israel, the Syrian front becomes a convenient pressure point to divide the Resistance.

⏳ Regional Posturing: Turkey and Israel see an opportunity to exploit Syria’s vulnerabilities.

⏳ Global Messaging: This attack sends a signal to Damascus and its allies: “The war isn’t over, and your enemies are still watching.”

5️⃣ Strategic Objectives Behind the Attack

🎯 The goal is not just military but deeply political: to weaken Syria’s position in the regional balance of power.

🔸 Regional Goals:

Strengthen Turkey’s control in the north.

Undermine Syria’s role as a key pillar of the Resistance Axis.

Disrupt coordination between Syria, Iran, and Russia.

🔸 Global Goals:

Keep Syria in a perpetual state of conflict, draining Iranian and Russian resources.

Prevent Syria from rebuilding as a sovereign, unified state.

6️⃣ What’s Next? Forecasting the Situation

1️⃣ Military Developments:

The Syrian Army is expected to regain lost ground, but sporadic attacks will likely continue to maintain pressure.

2️⃣ Axis of Resistance Response:

The escalation will lead to greater coordination between Damascus, Tehran, and Hezbollah, likely resulting in more decisive countermeasures.

3️⃣ Geopolitical Fallout:

Syria will use this attack as further evidence of external involvement in fueling terrorism, potentially rallying greater domestic and international support.

7️⃣ The Message to the Resistance

Every battle in Syria is part of a broader war to weaken the Resistance Axis. But history has proven one thing: this war is fought as much with resilience and willpower as with weapons.

📢 Negotiations with you are a sign of your strength.

📢 Escalations against you reveal their fear.

This fight is not just about borders or cities—it’s about defending dignity, sovereignty, and the legacy of those who sacrificed for freedom.

What’s happening in Aleppo is a calculated move in the larger war on the Resistance. But as always, these attacks will ultimately strengthen the resolve of Syria and its allies, proving once again that the Resistance thrives under pressure.

✊ The battle continues, and dignity prevails.
