Syrian Rebels Advance to Within 10 Kilometers of Damascus Suburbs
Dec 7, 2024, 01:16 PM
Syrian rebel forces have reportedly advanced to the suburbs of Damascus as part of a significant military offensive. The rebels have taken control of the town of Al-Sanamayn in southern Syria, located approximately 20 kilometers from the capital, and are now as close as 10 kilometers from the southern gate of Damascus. Opposition sources indicate that the operation involves coordinated attacks from multiple fronts, with reinforcements being deployed from both the north and south. Reports suggest that Syrian government forces are retreating from some positions near Damascus without resistance. This marks a notable escalation in the conflict, as the rebels aim to approach the capital amid ongoing hostilities.
