Syria Faces Uncertain Future After Assad Regime's Collapse

The fall of Bashar al-Assad has created a power vacuum, raising hopes for peace but also fears of instability and extremist resurgence.

• Bashar al-Assad's regime collapsed following a rapid offensive by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and allied rebel groups, leaving Syria at a political crossroads.
• HTS leader Abu Mohammad al-Jolani has pledged to establish a transitional government, but concerns remain about the group's Islamist roots and governance capabilities.
• The fall of Assad has disrupted Iran's regional influence, severing key supply routes to Hezbollah and reshaping the Middle East's geopolitical balance.
• Israel has launched strikes on Syrian military sites to prevent weapons from falling into extremist hands and has temporarily moved troops into Syrian territory, drawing international criticism.
• Thousands of Syrians are searching for missing loved ones in former regime prisons, highlighting the human toll of Assad's brutal rule and the challenges of reconciliation.
