  • Assad's control of Syria's south crumbled on Saturday as rebels seized multiple cities and closed in on Damascus, the capital, posing one of the most acute threats to his rule in 13 years of civil war.

The article from MSN discusses the escalating conflict in Syria, where Syrian rebels are intensifying their efforts to challenge President Bashar al-Assad's regime by launching attacks from both the northern and southern fronts of Damascus. The rebels, backed by various international supporters, are attempting to disrupt Assad's control over the capital, which is crucial for his regime's survival. The northern front sees rebels, including groups like Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, clashing with government forces near Idlib, while in the south, opposition forces are reportedly gaining ground in areas like Daraa, the birthplace of the Syrian uprising. These movements are part of a broader strategy to encircle Damascus, aiming to weaken Assad's grip on power amidst ongoing international diplomatic efforts and a complex web of foreign interventions. The situation remains fluid, with potential implications for regional stability and the ongoing Syrian civil war.
