Recent reports indicate that Syrian rebels, led by the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), have captured Bashar al-Assad’s palace in Aleppo amid a significant offensive in northwest Syria. This marks the first time since the war began in 2011 that the Assad regime has lost full control of Aleppo. The city is now largely in rebel hands, with only a few Kurdish neighborhoods remaining outside their control.

Rebels reportedly stormed the palace, looting furniture and taking photos inside. The operation coincided with broader rebel advances that have seized key military installations and weapons, including a Russian air defense system. The development is seen as a severe blow to the Assad regime, which has relied on support from Iran and Russia in recent years to maintain control.
