"The moment when Assad will grasp the hand extended by Erdoğan is imminent."

After four years, tensions have risen in Syria, and for the last five days, armed groups opposing Bashar al-Assad have been advancing towards the center of Hama, following Aleppo and Idlib. Armed groups opposing Assad, which entered the city center of Aleppo in recent days, have taken control of many neighborhoods.

16 PEOPLE KILLED IN AIR STRIKE ON IDLIB

The number of civilians killed in the airstrikes carried out by the Assad regime on the city center of Idlib in northwestern Syria yesterday has risen to 16. Warplanes belonging to the Assad regime targeted the neighborhoods of Kuzey, Hamarat, and Kusur in the city center of Idlib yesterday. According to information from Civil Defense sources, the number of civilians who lost their lives in the attacks has increased to 16, with 21 children, 19 women, and 59 civilians injured.

HE MAY GRASP ERDOĞAN'S OUTSTRETCHED HAND

While the whole world closely follows the developments in the region, Assad, who has found himself in a tight position in Damascus and Latakia, has not received the expected support from Russia and Iran. As a result, Assad, who has not grasped the hand that President Erdoğan has been persistently extending for a year, has paid a heavy price for his mistakes. Unable to find support from Western countries either, Assad may grasp Erdoğan's outstretched hand in the new era.

WHAT HAPPENED?

On November 27, clashes began between the Assad regime forces and opposition armed groups in the western rural area of Aleppo province in northern Syria. On November 27-28, opposition armed groups rapidly advanced from the western rural areas of Aleppo towards the center, and from the second day of the clashes, they also captured many areas in the rural parts of Idlib. Armed groups that entered the city center of Aleppo on November 29 have now taken control of a large part of the center.
