Hama under siege! ⚔️ Rebel forces advance, Assad's allies falter. A humanitarian crisis unfolds. Click to witness the unfolding drama!
Hama on the Brink: A City Under Siege
The battle for Hama intensifies. From the front lines to the halls of the UN, the struggle for this strategic Syrian city is sending ripples across the region. Rebel forces, fresh off their victory in Aleppo, are pushing south, testing the resolve of a weakened Assad regime and its allies. These videos, captured from various perspectives, offer a crucial glimpse into the evolving conflict. They dissect the rebel advance, the crumbling defenses of the Syrian military, and the complex international involvement that threatens to escalate the conflict further. The fate of Hama hangs in the balance, and the consequences of its fall could reshape the Syrian landscape and beyond.
Key Takeaways From the Front
Rebel Momentum: Opposition forces, including the HTS-led coalition, are making significant gains, pushing closer to Hama after seizing Aleppo. Their advance appears faster than anticipated, suggesting a potentially weakened Syrian army.
Assad’s Faltering Alliances:Russia and Iran, traditional allies of the Assad regime, appear less committed to supporting him in this latest offensive. Russia’s involvement in Ukraine and Iran’s internal challenges may be diverting resources and attention. The US has also conducted airstrikes in eastern Syria, adding another layer of complexity to the situation.
Humanitarian Crisis: Tens of thousands of civilians are being displaced by the fighting, creating a growing humanitarian emergency that demands international attention.
International Implications: The conflict is playing out on a global stage, with accusations and confrontations between Russia and the US at the United Nations. Turkey’s backing of the rebels also adds a regional dimension to the conflict.
Shifting Sands: The Future of Hama and Syria
The rapid rebel advance raises questions about the Assad regime’s ability to hold onto power. With dwindling support from key allies and a demoralized military, his options are limited. Will he be able to mount a successful counteroffensive, or will Hama fall, potentially paving the way for a rebel push towards Damascus? The evolving dynamics between global powers, particularly the US and Russia, further complicate the situation. The US airstrikes, while justified as self-defense, could escalate tensions and draw them deeper into the conflict.

Rebels in Syria are closing in on the city of Hama, pushing ahead with their assault against government forces. The regime of Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad vowed to counterattack when the fighters broke out of their enclave in Idlib and took Syria’s second-largest city of Aleppo last week. It’s causing a massive humanitarian crisis, sparked by the fighting and as Russia carries out airstrikes in support of government forces. Moscow has been Assad’s main supporter in the past. But with Russian forces now fighting in Ukraine, questions are mounting over the Kremlin’s commitment to its Syrian ally.

Why the Syrian military can’t resist the rebels as they advance on the city of Hama | DW NewsDW News146,126 views | 1,598 | December 3 2024 17:00:31 (392 comments)[ Read more … ]
Opposition activitists in Syria say insurgents are pushing ahead with their offensive against government forces, capturing more
towns and closing in on the city of Hama. State troops say they’ve retaken some territory lost in last week’s surprise attack, when the alliance of rebel groups took the country’s second city, Aleppo. The United Nations says nearly 50,000 people have been displaced by the latest fighting.
For more on this, we talk to Fabrice Balanche. He is an associate professor and research director at the University of Lyon, where he specializes in the geopolitics of the Middle East.
And we are joined in the studio by DW’s Gasia Ohanes, who grew up in Aleppo and has reported extensively for us on the Syrian crisis.

US Air Force Carries out Airstrikes in Syria as Rebels Advance toward Damascus | Firstpost AmericaFirstpost171,077 views | 1,818 | December 4 2024 19:30:03 (820 comments)[ Read more … ]
US Air Force Carries out Airstrikes in Syria as Rebels Advance toward Damascus | Firstpost America
The United States Air Force conducted airstrikes in Eastern Syria on December 3. A-10 Thunderbolt, commonly known as Warthogs, carried out ground attacks in Eastern Syria. The Pentagon says that the airstrikes were carried out in “self-defence” after unknown groups fired at American troops in the country’s east. At least 900 American soldiers are deployed in Eastern Syria and are crucial in fighting against terror outfits in the country. Meanwhile, Russia and the US collided at the United Nations where they both accused each other of the chaos in Syria. Syrian rebels continue to advance and are now laying siege to Hama. After Hama, the next major city is the capital Damascus where Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad is fortifying defences.

Syrian military and rebels battle north of Hama • FRANCE 24 EnglishFRANCE 24 English14,969 views | 144 | December 4 2024 14:39:21 (37 comments)[ Read more … ]
Intense airstrikes and the arrival of pro-government reinforcements drove Syrian rebels back overnight from the edge of Hama, a major city whose fall would pile pressure on President Bashar al-Assad, both sides said on Wednesday. Rebels have staged their biggest advance in years over the past week, seizing Aleppo – Syria’s largest city before the war – and much of the surrounding countryside. By Tuesday they had all but reached the Hama outskirts a third of the way between Aleppo and Damascus.
