The few months of Al-Sharaa administration’s rule saw firm actions in retaliation for alleged attacks attributed to Hezbollah and pro-Assad supporters, and complete inaction towards Israel’s recurrent aggression.

The announcement occurred while the Sharaa government is facing increased scrutiny over mass sectarian killings. The integration of SDF will consolidate and expand the government’s control.

The unrest is considered the worst in the country since former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was overthrown, and it raises concerns about jeopardizing regional security.

After the fall of Al-Assad, the US swiftly removed Ahmad Al-Shara’a from its terrorist list, paving the way for him to become Syria’s new president.

The leader also emphasized that Iran does not have proxy forces in the region, but that its allies fight because of their belief in resisting oppression.

How the Gulf country is maneuvering today has much to do with its desire to maintain its position as a middleman between the region and the West.

Following the fall of the Assad government, Israel has launched an aerial bombing campaign to demilitarize Syria while expanding into the Golan Heights in the South.

Iran denies the regime change in Syria will have much impact on resistance groups, particularly Hezbollah, claiming they are independent to geographical constraints.
