الجماعات المعارضة السورية الرئيسية

By Jordi Bou

December 9, 2024 - الجماعة المسلحة السورية التي أطاحت ببشار الأسد واستولت على العاصمة دمشق تضم مقاتلين من فصائل مختلفة، في حين تسيطر مجموعات أخرى أيضاً على أراضٍ في أماكن أخرى من البلاد.

Syria is starting a hopeful but uncertain era after rebels seized the capital and President Bashar al-Assad fled to Russia, following 13 years of civil war and more than 50 years of his family’s brutal rule.

The rebel commander Ahmed al-Sharaa, leader of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), the main rebel group behind Assad’s ouster, has met with Assad’s Prime Minister Mohammed Jalali and Vice President Faisal Mekdad to discuss arrangements for a transitional government, according to Reuters.

But Ahmed al-Sharaa, better known as Abu Mohammed al-Golani, is not the only player in Syria’s fast-changing future.

Other groups, including an umbrella alliance of Turkish-backed militias known as the Syrian National Army (SNA) and the mainly Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) groups have also gained ground and will be determined to hold on to their gains.
