The Syrian Defense Ministry has declared the end of its operation against loyalists of ousted President Bashar al-Assad. Over 1,000 people, mostly civilians, were killed during the fighting. Public services are resuming, and an investigation into the violence is underway.
The Syrian defense ministry has announced the completion of a military operation targeting forces loyal to former President Bashar al-Assad. This marks the end of intense fighting that has taken place over the past three months. The clashes, particularly in Syria’s coastal regions, have resulted in significant casualties, with war monitors reporting over 1,000 deaths, including civilians.
The new leadership, led by Ahmed al-Sharaa of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, has stated its intention to unify the country while navigating the complex influence of regional powers. The defense ministry’s spokesperson, Hassan Abdul Ghany, confirmed that public institutions are resuming operations, and efforts are underway to restore stability and security. While the military operation has officially concluded, authorities have stated that additional measures will be taken to address any remaining security concerns.
Reports indicate that the violence has included acts of retaliation, deepening existing divisions within Syrian society. Sharaa has pledged to investigate those responsible for the recent unrest and to hold them accountable. An independent investigation committee has also been formed to examine the events and ensure transparency in the process.
