WHAT HAD HAPPENED?
On November 27, clashes intensified between regime-opposing armed groups and Bashar al-Assad's forces in Syria. The groups gained dominance in the largest cities such as Aleppo, Idlib, Hama, and Homs between November 30 and December 7. As the groups began to enter the capital, Damascus, on December 7, with support from the masses, the regime completely lost control in Damascus and many other regions, leading to its collapse.
