ANALYSIS🚨 What happened in #Syria in the last few days has left many in shock, how could the Syrian army cede so much territory within a matter of days? As the fog of war settles the picture becomes clearer.
🔻The first step in understanding this is to note that the Syrian army were ordered to retreat from Aleppo/Hama. The soldiers didn't run and there was no mutiny. The AlQaeda hordes didn't defeat the Army, because they didn't fight them in the first place. They simply ceded the ground. To understand why such a gut wrenching decision had to be made we must have to look at the wider chessboard. A thread🧵

BLITZKRIEG
A surprise attack that uses a concentrated force to quickly overwhelm the enemy. This is what the Syrian army was facing. Once the AlQaeda hordes breached the M4 highway, attempting to hold the city in the chaos way would have caused mass casualties among both civilians and soldiers.
To defeat a Blitzkrieg you must:
A) Fall back, to over stretch the enemy until they reach a point where they don't have enough resources to keep pushing. That point is being reached in Homs.
B) Air superiority. It's much easier to bomb convoys of AlQaeda terrorists on highways from the air than fight them inside cities. This way their man power is depleted.
C) Flanking, counter attack from the flank of a spear head. If the over exuberant enemy has gone to far ahead they can be separated into more easily manageable pockets. Part of this strategy could be seen when Russia blew Rastan the bridge that leads from Hama to Homs.

MANPOWER
Have you observed that there wasn't many Syrian army casualties during the retreat? That is rather the point, preserving man power.
#Syria is a country of less than 20 million people. There's not that large of a pool of recruits to draw from, and after fighting 13 years of war the numbers depleted.
Hezbollah's war with "Israel" and Russia's war with Ukraine, added to the man power shortage.
As such the soldiers lives have to be preserved. If large number had been lost in an attempted to hold Aleppo from an unlimited number of Turkic and central Asian hordes then Damascus would subsequently soon later fall and all would be lost.
In cold weather, the body pools blood away from the exterminates to keep up ones core temperature, Syria must consolidate it's man power to maintain the core.
What's more is, the Syrian army is fighting a war on multiple fronts, the Turkic hordes from the north, the Americans to the east, the Americans and Takfiris to the south, and finally Israel. Which, brings us to the next point.

Israeli Invasion Looms
This is perhaps the most important reason for the withdrawal from Hama and Aleppo. An Israeli invasion is very likely if not imminent. The intention is to create a land grab and label it a "buffer zone".
The Zionist scourge would like nothing more than the Syrian army to deplete it's resources fighting the AlQaeda hordes, then come in to steal the land unopposed.
The Syrian army deployed extra man power near the Golan front after Oct 7th. They can't afford to spend man power on the north.
Israel is the biggest threat to Syria, the AlQaeda hordes are merely a distraction. It is this threat for which the Syrian army must maintain it's resources. Israel, the eternal enemy.
This is Syria's existential war. Just as it is for Palestine and Lebanon.
