Targeting Russia’s Grip in SyriaThe United States and its allies have redirected their attention to Syria in a strategic effort to weaken Russia’s regional influence and curb Iran’s growing power. International mediator Faisal Mohammed, speaking to Pakistan’s news agency News Guru, revealed that this move aims to limit Russia’s ability to pressure European nations backing Ukraine during its conflict. To achieve this, Western powers have reportedly fostered alliances between Syrian rebel factions, segments of Bashar al-Assad’s military, and militant groups, intensifying efforts to challenge Assad’s regime.

Rebels Gain Ground Amid Escalation
Faisal revealed that rebel offensives in Syria have sparked widespread celebrations in Turkey, though President Erdogan has distanced his government from the unfolding events. The advancing rebels and their alliances have prompted Russia to launch airstrikes in key Syrian regions, while Iran has mobilized its military. This volatile situation has simultaneously created opportunities for Israel, which may enter Syrian territory to counter Iranian proxies and Hezbollah, further complicating the dynamics.

Geopolitical Ramifications and Israel’s Role
The evolving scenario could reshape the Syrian conflict, with potential implications for regional stability. Faisal highlighted the role of Syrian military generals in allowing foreign influence to permeate, inadvertently giving Israel a foothold. The emerging alignment of interests between certain militant groups and Israel could have far-reaching consequences for Syria and neighboring Muslim nations, exacerbating tensions and undermining sovereignty in the region.
