Israel has not invaded Syria. The recent events, including the fall of Hama and Damascus on December 8, 2024, were the result of an 11-day rebel (Syrian opposition groups) offensive against Assad’s regime, driven by internal Syrian dynamics, not Israeli action. https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/after-decades-of-brutal-rule-bashar-al-assad-s-regime-has-been-toppled-here-s-what-you-need-to-know-1.7138483 https://www.al-monitor.com/originals/2024/12/syrian-rebels-take-control-hama-major-blow-assad https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/09/middleeast/syria-assad-rebels-explainer-intl-hnk/index.html https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/12/09/world/syria-assad-rebels https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/12/5/syrian-opposition-fighters-claim-to-have-entered-the-crucial-city-of-hama https://www.cbsnews.com/video/celebration-and-uncertainty-in-syria-after-rebels-topple-assad-dictatorship/
