Syria

From Heterodontosaurus Balls

The tyrant Bashar al-Assad has fled. We declare the city of Damascus free from the tyrant Bashar al-Assad. This is the moment that the displaced and prisoners have long awaited, the moment of returning home and the moment of freedom after decades of oppression and suffering. To the displaced all over the world, a free Syria awaits you.
— The Syrian Opposition proclaiming Assad's defeat

Syria, officially the Syrian Arab Republic, is a jihadist country located in West Asia and the Levant. He borders Mediterranean Sea to the west, Türkiye to the north, Iraq to the east and southeast, Jordan to the south, plus Israel and Lebanon to the southwest.

It is quite of concerning that the Syrian government is filled with Islamists that causes harm to minorities such as Christians and Alawites, massacres have been committed.

The name "Syria" historically referred to a wider region, broadly synonymous with the Levant, and known in Arabic as al-Sham. The modern state encompasses the sites of several ancient kingdoms and empires.

History

In late 2024, Syrian Opposition alliance launched a big operation and destroyed Ba'athist Syria on December 8th. A new government was set up by the opposition, though still using the same official name (Syrian Arab Republic). The war had left Syria's economy in a poor state, exacerbated by many still-remaining international sanctions.

Immediately after the fall of Assad, Israel invaded Syria, claiming it to be a temporary peacekeeping measure. Israel started to destroy a bunch of chemical weapons in Syria so they couldn't fell into the wrong hands (such as the jihadists, since they made up a big chunk of the opposition alliance).

On Janurary 10 2025, there was a stampede at the Umayyad Mosque located in Damascus that killed 4 and injured 16.

In March 2025, Loyalist Assadist insurgencies have been clashing with Syria. Fighting increased significantly and escalated after large-scale attacks by the pro-Assadists on 6 March 2025. During these clashes, both sides committed a massacre on more than 1500 Alawite civilians.

On 21 March 2025, Israel launched air strikes on Syria again. On 22 March 2025, Israel attacked the airport of Palmyra.

In May 2025, celebrations among the Syrian people happen as US president Donald Trump decide to lift all sanctions (from the Ba'athist era) off of Syria to give him a chance.

An Islamist attacker, allegedly affiliated with ISIS, shot up an Orthodox church in Damascus before suiciding by bomb on 22 June. At least 25 people have been killed and 63 others wounded.

Geography

Syria is bordered by Turkey to the north and northwest, Jordan to the south and southeast, Iraq to the east and southeast, and Lebanon and then Israel to the southwest.
