Syrian army aims to control Kurdish areas in Syria

The army has made significant territorial gains in northeastern Syria after intense battles with the SDF, seizing areas previously under Kurdish-led SDF control. This allows the government to strengthen its hold on a strategic and oil-rich region, despite failed negotiations between Damascus and the SDF over the past year. The involvement of the US in mediation efforts has not led to any resolution, raising questions about the future implications of these developments within Syria and the wider region.
