Ambush Near Tartous Kills 14 Syrian Security Personnel in Clash with Ousted Assad Loyalist Forces

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’ Deadly Campaign in Syria Exposed: Attacks Every 10 Minutes, Minorities Targeted

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. #HTSAttack #SyriaViolence #MinoritiesUnderSiege #SyriaCrisis #HTSMilitants #SyriaTerror #SyriaProtests #ReligiousPersecution #CoastalSyria #SyriaNews #MiddleEastConflict #HTSReignOfTerror #AssadOverthrown #SyriaAtWar #SyriaBlackout Also Read Bashar al Assad's Wife Asma Seeks Divorce, Plans To Relocate To UK With Children: Report :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/bashar-al-assads-wife-asma-seeks-divorce-plans-to-relocate-to-uk-with-children-report-4023711.html?ref=DMDesc Syria's Future: Insights from the Arab Spring's Democratic Transitions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrias-future-lessons-from-arab-spring-nations-011-4022149.html?ref=DMDesc Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu Confirms Troop Presence in Syrian Buffer Zone for Security Reasons :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-occupation-buffer-zone-syria-security-011-4018801.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.318~ED.194~GR.124~

Trump’s Return to Power, Fall of Assad, Kazakhstan and Jeju Air Crash| Major Event That Shaped 2024

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. #YearEnder #YearEnder2024 #Trump2024 #KamalaHarris #BidenStepDown #SyriaRebels #BasharAlAssad #HayatTahrirAlSham #SouthKoreaMartialLaw #IsraelHamasWar #GazaDestruction #ModiReElection #ParisOlympics2024 #JejuAirCrash #KazakhstanPlaneCrash #AzerbaijanAirlinesCrash #DeadlyAirlineCrashes Also Read 2024 US Election: Historic Firsts And Game-Changing Milestones In This Presidential Elections :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/2024-us-election-historic-firsts-and-game-changing-milestones-in-this-presidential-elections-4009643.html?ref=DMDesc Kamala Harris' Next Moves: Preparing For 2028, Writing Tell-All, Or Hiatus From Politics? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/kamala-harris-next-moves-preparing-for-2028-writing-tell-all-or-hiatus-from-politics-3982231.html?ref=DMDesc Biden Faces Criticism from Harris Supporters Following Her Loss to Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/biden-criticised-by-harris-supporters-for-loss-to-trump-011-3980977.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.334~
