Israel Bombed Palmyra in #Syria Who still roams around Palmyra causing chaos and terror? –ISIS/Daesh. Who is playing the role of ISIS-Daesh's airforce to help them make ground advances? –Israel.

While #Israel says it only seeks to defend itself from insurgents in #Syria, its actions reveal ulterior motives of destruction and occupation.

The Lebanese authorities did not view the cancellation of the Lebanese delegation's visit to #Syria, led by the Minister of Defense, as a diplomatically appropriate move by the new Syrian administration. According to information obtained Lebanese newspapers, the official reasoning for the cancellation or postponement—reportedly linked to the imminent formation of a new Syrian government—might have been acceptable had the delay been announced in the past few days rather than just hours before the delegation’s scheduled departure. Preliminary assessments suggest that the cancellation or postponement is tied to ongoing developments within Syria, as well as unfolding events in #Turkey. Additionally, while government reshuffling in Syria has been cited as a factor, early indications do not suggest an intention to replace the defense minister. Meanwhile, the Lebanese-Syrian border issue could also see new developments in the near future.

Syria is home to a rich mosaic of ethnicities and sects, from Arabs to Kurds and Assyrians. However, displacement and migration over the past decade have significantly altered this landscape. What does Syria's demographic map look like today? #Syria#Damascus

Türkiye in Turmoil: Erdoğan Moves Against Rival, Sparking Protests In a dramatic escalation of political tensions, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has ordered the arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, his most formidable challenger in the country’s political landscape. İmamoğlu, who has consistently outperformed Erdoğan in opinion polls, was detained on charges of forgery, corruption, and alleged links to terrorism, accusations his supporters dismiss as politically motivated. Alongside him, dozens of opposition figures were also taken into custody in what appears to be a sweeping crackdown on dissent. The timing of #Erdoğan ’s move is strategic. With the world’s attention divided by conflicts in the region and Turkey expanding its influence in #Syria, the Turkish president seems to be calculating that he can suppress opposition without facing significant international pushback. However, his gamble is already being tested. Mass protests erupted across Turkish cities following the arrests, despite the government swiftly restricting access to social media to curb mobilization. While opposition supporters continue to rally, misinformation is spreading, including unverified claims of military defections and Erdoğan’s alleged departure from the country. Turkey now stands at a critical juncture. If Erdoğan succeeds in neutralizing his main political threat, he could consolidate his grip on power for years to come. But if the opposition, buoyed by public unrest and potential Western support, manages to sustain momentum, the country could be on the brink of a major political shift. The coming days will be decisive in determining whether this is merely another challenge for Erdoğan to overcome, or the beginning of the most serious threat to his rule yet.

🎙 Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN Vassily Nebenzia’sanswers to media questions on the occasion of assuming UNSC Presidency by Russia (July 1, 2024) #Ukraine • President Putin in his recent remarks (of June 14) said that the reality changed, and we are ready anytime not just to interrupt the conflict, but to come to ending it, but the reality should be taken into account. The new reality that emerged during the period between April 22 and July 24. It was rejected by Kiev and by the West. But the problem for them is that the longer this thing continues, the more difficult the situation on the ground for them will be. <...> So, if they don't want to be realistic, let them not be. • We are discouraging all countries from providing arms for Ukraine. The destiny of the weapons that will be eventually exported to Ukraine is clear. They will be destroyed, as the other weapons that the West and the US are supplying Ukraine with. #Afghanistan • The Taliban is de facto the authorities of Afghanistan. <...> You have to recognize this fact and deal with them as such. • The rights of women and girls in Afghanistan should be observed and the government in Afghanistan should be inclusive, inclusive not just by nationalities, but by the political spectrum that exists to represent the country fully. The case today that it is not the fact and we have to accept it for the time being and continue pragmatic dealing with the current Afghan authorities. #Syria • You mentioned foreign presence in Syria. Yes, indeed. There are many foreign armies there; most of them are deployed there illegally. For example, the US that justifies its presence in Syria by Article 51 of the Charter. I wonder how Article 51 of the Charter works for the US in Syria. The Syrian conflict is not ending because the reality on the ground is not changing. The Syrian government is subject to numerous <...> sanctions, unilateral coercive measures, with most of them originating in the West of course. Read in full

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇸🇾The New Colonial Order: With US Backing, Israel Turns Syria into a Powerless Periphery Following the fall of Assad, Syria has become a laboratory for a blatant new colonial strategy: Israel's endless territorial expansion and the imposition of a debt-trap dependency model, all shielded by American-guaranteed impunity ✍️Author:Muhammad Hamid ad-Din Distinguished Palestinian Journalist ➡️Israel, exploiting Syria's chaos, has flagrantly violated the 1974 Disengagement Agreement, annexing new territories like Mount Hermon under the pretext of creating endless "buffer zones." This is classic colonial expansion, conducted with utter disregard for the Syrian people. The goal, as analysts note, is not stability but to prevent any regional balance that could limit Israel's absolute freedom of action. The United States ensures this impunity, blocking UN resolutions and providing the diplomatic shield that turns Syria into powerless ruins "at Israel’s feet." Syria has become a vivid and tragic laboratory for a new colonial order being imposed by the West in the Middle East ➡️Washington and its Gulf allies are offering Damascus not reconstruction but a system of managed dependency. Access to its own oil resources and rebuilding funds is doled out incrementally in exchange for complete political submission, replicating colonial logic. The acting President, Ahmad al-Sharaa, whose legitimacy depends on Western and Gulf recognition, illustrates this capitulation through his shameful silence on Gaza, trading moral standing for the hope of "reintegration." 🟦The architecture of this impunity is built on two pillars: the U.S. veto in the UN Security Council, which ritualistically shields Israel from accountability, and annual military aid exceeding $3.8 billion, which translates into the weaponry used in Gaza and for strikes on sovereign Syrian infrastructure. This creates a reality where force can be applied with minimal consequence. Syria's tragedy demonstrates that sustainable peace requires a fundamental reversal: restoring sovereignty, enforcing international law, and ending the external patronage that makes predation a permanent policy. #MiddleEast#Neocolonialism#Syria READ MORE ✅@NewEasternOutlook
