Syrian Rebels Capture Hama: Assad’s Forces Withdraw as HTS Gains Ground in Major Jihadist Offensive
In a stunning development, the Syrian military has withdrawn from the key city of Hama as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) militants seized control following intense battles.
The Syrian government's retreat came after a series of heavy clashes, with the military choosing to prioritize civilian safety over further conflict.
Footage shows HTS fighters entering the city, celebrating their victory, and continuing their advance in the region.
With this shift in control, the situation for President Bashar al-Assad's forces grows increasingly precarious.
The international community watches closely as these developments mark a critical point in Syria's ongoing conflict.

Violence broke out in the southern Damascus suburb of Jaramana after a controversial audio clip allegedly insulting Prophet Muhammad went viral. The clip, falsely attributed to Druze cleric Marwan Kiwan, triggered deadly clashes between Druze gunmen and government forces. Kiwan denied the message, and Syria’s Interior Ministry confirmed he wasn’t responsible. At least 10 people were killed, with activist groups reporting higher tolls. As religious leaders call for calm and Israel monitors the situation, tensions remain high in one of Syria's most volatile suburbs.

In a powerful statement at the UN, Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative, Maria Zabolotskaya, condemned Western countries for their "double standards" in addressing the global refugee crisis. Highlighting the devastating impact of the Gaza conflict, she criticized the reluctance of Western nations to provide sufficient humanitarian aid to refugees, particularly those fleeing from war-torn regions like Syria, Afghanistan, and Sudan. Zabolotskaya also pointed out the hypocrisy in Western countries voicing concern over Ukrainian refugees while ignoring the plight of those seeking asylum in Russia. She called out the EU's failure to provide adequate support to refugees, especially those crossing the Mediterranean, and the deadly consequences of this inaction. With lives at stake and no accountability, the international community must confront the moral and legal crisis unfolding before our eyes.

Deadly violence erupted in Jaramana, a Druze and Christian-majority suburb near Damascus, after a leaked audio recording allegedly insulting Islamic religious figures triggered outrage. On April 28, reports say Islamist HTS forces stormed the area, leading to intense gunfire and shelling that lasted around 30 minutes. At least four Druze fighters were killed, with unverified reports suggesting dozens injured or over 20 dead. The incident highlights rising sectarian tensions under HTS rule in Syria, as the region remains on edge following similar clashes in March.

Kremlin confirmed ongoing U.S.-Russia talks on Ukraine peace, despite Donald Trump's frustration with Vladimir Putin. Trump, angered by Putin's criticism of Ukraine's leader, warned of imposing secondary tariffs on Russian oil. Meanwhile, Russia expressed interest in rare earth projects with the U.S. The possibility of a Trump-Putin call remains open, as Trump insists on an end to the war, while global markets brace for potential impacts of the threatened sanctions.

U.S Special Envoy Steve Witkoff recently met Russian President Vladimir Putin in a bid to persuade Russia for a ceasefire deal in Ukraine. This was the 4th such meeting in just over 2 months, but there seems to be no breakthrough yet as Putin remains firm recognition of Russia's control over Crimea and the four regions under Russian control since 2022. With peace talks stalling, could a Putin-Trump summit be the only path forward?

US President Donald Trump has claimed Ukraine could be “crushed very shortly” unless it agrees to peace talks with Russia. In an interview with The Atlantic, Trump said he’s trying to save Ukraine by pushing for negotiations, suggesting Moscow is open to a deal. He criticized Kiev’s stance, especially on Crimea, and hinted Zelensky was tougher to negotiate with than Putin. Meanwhile, Vice President Vance echoed similar concerns, and Secretary of State Rubio warned of the US abandoning talks if delays persist. Trump is also seeking a minerals agreement with Ukraine.

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko have arrived in Volgograd—formerly known as Stalingrad—for a high-profile World War II commemoration. But is this just a symbolic tribute to Soviet history, or something more? The two leaders are expected to address a joint Russian-Belarusian parliamentary forum on wartime legacy, but their private meeting is sparking speculation about deeper military and strategic coordination. With Belarus now formally aligned with nuclear-armed Russia through a 2024 defense pact, and tensions with the West rising, many are questioning the true purpose behind this visit. Watch the full video to explore what’s really going on.

In a stunning political shift, nearly 90% of Ukrainians say they don’t trust U.S. President Donald Trump, according to a new poll marking his first 100 days back in office. Once seen as a possible dealmaker in the Russia-Ukraine war, Trump is now viewed with deep skepticism in Kyiv after refusing to provide security guarantees, blaming Ukrainian leadership for the ongoing conflict, and proposing a controversial peace plan that many see as favoring Moscow. Is Trump abandoning Ukraine? Or reshaping U.S. foreign policy with cold realism?
