Syria Braces for Major Offensive as West 'Enters War': Iraqi Forces Join Fight Against Dayr al-Zawr
Syria is on the brink of a major military escalation as militants backed by Western powers intensify their offensive in the east.
The Syrian military has been put on high alert in response to a growing threat from groups like Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and other foreign-backed factions.
In a surprising turn, Iraqi forces have pledged to support the Syrian government troops in repelling these militant attacks, signaling a shift in the regional balance of power.
As the West allegedly continues to back these groups, Syria's resilience is being tested on all fronts.
The UK has re-established diplomatic ties with Syria, David Lammy has said, as he made the first visit to the country by a British minister for 14 years. Sky News
Rama Duwaji—artist, activist, and wife of NYC Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani—has stepped into the spotlight after months of silence. The 27-year-old Syrian-American illustrator, known for her pro-Palestinian work, had avoided campaign publicity, sparking controversy and speculation. Critics claimed her art and political stance made her a liability.
But on June 24, as Mamdani celebrated his win, she stood beside him—silent, composed, present. Born in Texas, raised partly in Dubai, Duwaji's work explores Gaza, race, identity, and dissent. Her pieces have supported Palestinian students and questioned U.S. policies. She and Mamdani met on a dating app, married in a private ceremony, and have since become one of NYC’s most-watched political couples. Now, as Mamdani eyes City Hall, all eyes are on Rama Duwaji—the woman who may soon be NYC’s first lady.
