On November 27, clashes intensified between anti-regime armed groups and Bashar al-Assad's forces in Syria. Between November 30 and December 7, these groups gained control over major provinces such as Aleppo, Idlib, Hama, and Homs.
On December 7, as the groups began entering the capital Damascus, popular support from local communities further undermined the regime's control. Consequently, the regime collapsed in Damascus and several other regions.
With the end of the Ba'ath Party's 61-year rule, regime leader Assad fled the capital. Meanwhile, the Syrian National Army launched the Dawn of Freedom Operation in December, liberating the Tel Rifaat district center from the terrorist group PKK/YPG on the first day.
With the subsequent liberation of Manbij, the region west of the Euphrates River—formerly the largest terrorist stronghold—was cleansed of PKK/YPG presence.
