Israel, US and Turkey conduct strikes in Syria after Assad's departure
Israel, the US, and Turkey have launched military strikes in Syria following the fall of President Bashar al-Assad, who has fled to Russia. The strikes target sites linked to chemical weapons and Islamic State, as regional powers adjust to the new situation. Rebels led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham have freed prisoners, including military conscripts, and announced a general amnesty. Former Syrian Prime Minister Mohammed al-Jalali has agreed to transfer power to the rebel government, marking a significant shift in control. Turkey has attacked Kurdish forces and confirmed a deal for their withdrawal from Manbij. Meanwhile, Iran has opened communication with the rebels, and Russia has warned against attacks on its military bases in Syria, emphasizing its continued support for Assad.
