Thousands flee as Syrian insurgents claim to reach key city of Homs
ai generated text
Rebel forces have been making significant gains in Syria, capturing key cities and pushing the government's forces back. The Islamist group leading the assault has liberated the last village on the outskirts of Homs, the country's third-largest city, and has also seized the southern city of Daraa, near Jordan.
Since the escalation of hostilities, at least 370,000 men, women and children, boys and girls, have been displaced, including 100,000 who left their homes more than once.
The seeds of the regime's defeat have always been within it… the Iranians attempted to revive the regime, buying it time, and later the Russians also tried to prop it up. But the truth remains: this regime is dead.
People who fear Islamic governance either have seen incorrect implementations of it or do not understand it properly.
The seeds of the regime's defeat have always been within it.
Syria deserves a governing system that is institutional, not one where a single ruler makes arbitrary decisions.
I think that once this regime falls, the issue will be resolved, and there will no longer be a need for any foreign forces to remain in Syria.
Idlib, Hama, Homs and after that most probably Damascus … we hope this march in Syria will continue without any issues.
There is a clear level of desperation and they are concentrating defence around strongholds. The big question now is what Iran and Russia do.
The question is whether they can continue the momentum and go to Damascus. It looks like a huge groundswell of support for what's happening and that reveals the brittle nature of the regime.
