The first response from Russia to Israel's attacks in Syria.

After the advance of opposition groups to the capital Damascus in Syria, Bashar al-Assad and his family fled to Russia. Following Assad's escape from Syria, Israel continued its advance in the region. The Israeli army, approaching Damascus after 51 years, has conducted over 300 airstrikes to gain control in the area.

FIRST REACTION FROM RUSSIA TO ISRAEL

Kremlin spokesman Peskov stated that Israel's attacks in the Golan Heights and buffer zones would not stabilize the situation in Syria.

DEVELOPMENTS IN SYRIA

On November 27, clashes intensified between regime-opposing armed groups and Bashar al-Assad's forces in Syria. The groups had established 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. The 61-year rule of the Ba'ath Party came to an end, and regime leader Assad fled the capital.

On the other hand, the Syrian National Army had liberated the district center of Tel Rifaat from the terrorist organization PKK/YPG on the first day of the Operation Dawn of Freedom, which was launched in December. With the liberation of the district of Manbij, the region, which had turned into the largest terrorist stronghold west of the Euphrates River, was cleared of PKK/YPG.
