Moscow Strikes Risky Pact with Syrian Rebels to Shield Key Military Bases As Assad Remains in Moscow
Moscow has entered high-stakes negotiations with Syrian rebel forces to protect its strategic military bases in Tartus and Khmeimim following the dramatic collapse of Bashar al-Assadâs government.
With Assad seeking refuge in Moscow and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) rebels tightening their grip on Syria, Russian officials are racing to secure agreements ensuring the safety of their bases.
While the rebels have taken control of surrounding provinces, Russian compounds remain operational under temporary guarantees.
This precarious arrangement marks a critical moment for Russiaâs military foothold in the region amid the volatile power shift.
Two years after a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck southern Turkey, survivors remember the tragedy that claimed over 53,000 lives in Turkey and 6,000 in Syria.

President Donald Trump has made a shocking move by dismantling the U.S. Justice Departmentâs task force that targeted Russian oligarchs and enforced sanctions against the Kremlinâs elite. The decision, which comes as part of a shift in focus to combating drug cartels and international gangs, has sparked outrage from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The now-disbanded Task Force KleptoCapture was originally established to weaken Russian financial networks following Moscowâs 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Critics argue that Trumpâs action benefits Putin and undermines efforts to hold Russian elites accountable. Stay tuned for reactions and geopolitical implications.

A deadly ambush near Syria's Mediterranean port of Tartous resulted in 14 interior ministry personnel killed and 10 injured. The attack was attributed to loyalists of ousted President Bashar al-Assad. It occurred during an operation to apprehend a former officer linked to the notorious Saydnaya prison. Three loyalists also lost their lives in the clash. This comes weeks after rebel forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) ousted Assad, ending decades of family rule. HTS promised to protect minorities but faces global designation as a terrorist group. Tensions continue to rise across the country.

HTS militants have unleashed a terrifying campaign of violence across Syria, with attacks occurring every 10 minutes, primarily targeting minority populations along the coastal regions. Following their rapid takeover on December 8, which ended Bashar al-Assad's 24-year rule, the militants have engaged in widespread looting, kidnapping, assassination, and harassment. Areas like Qardaha, Tartous, and Latakia have been hit hardest, with reports of grisly shootings, throat-slashing, and desecration of religious sites. An information blackout has made it difficult to fully document the scale of the devastation, but protests are surging in response to HTS' brutal tactics. This deadly operation has left a nation in fear, with entire communities now living in constant danger.

The year 2024 was marked by several pivotal global events. Donald Trump's return to the U.S. presidency shocked the political landscape, following a fiercely contested election where Kamala Harris, despite Biden's endorsement, failed to secure a victory. In Syria, years of civil war culminated in the fall of President Bashar al-Assad, as rebel forces led by Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, supported by Turkish-backed groups, successfully overthrew his regime. Meanwhile, the world was shaken by multiple deadly plane crashes, including the tragic crashes in Kazakhstan and Jeju Air, which claimed over 200 lives. These events, alongside ongoing conflicts like the Israel-Hamas war and Modi's re-election in India, have defined a tumultuous year that has left lasting impacts on geopolitics and human lives.
