Iran-backed Iraqi militias bolster Syrian regime against insurgents
TL;DR Summary
Iranian-backed Iraqi militias have entered eastern Syria to support forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad after Islamist militants, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, seized control of Aleppo. This development further complicates the Syrian civil war, which has seen Assad's forces rely heavily on support from Iran and Russia. The loss of Aleppo has prompted regional diplomatic efforts, with Iran and Turkey engaging in talks to stabilize the situation. Meanwhile, the White Helmets are working to assist displaced civilians amid ongoing airstrikes in the region.
