SO LONG, SPACE COWBOYSRecent news:Keep in mind the previous thread lasted months, so these events are separated by weeks.
Suwayda conflict basically freezes.
Minor clashes between SDF & STG.
STG attempts to capture Omar Omson, the leader of a French foreign Islamist faction accused of kidnapping women, at his base in Idlib countryside. They fail and come to a truce.
More clashes between SDF & STG.
Small anti-Alawite pogrom in Homs caused by the murder of two Sunnis there, despite STG investigation revealing that there was no sectarian motive to the murder.
Protests by Alawites in the coastal region in response to the pogrom. Multiple deaths among protestors, counter-protestors and STG security forces.
Multiple deaths among US soldiers during a joint STG-US patrol in Palmyra. The attacker infiltrated and was a part of the STG's MoI and was with the patrol.
The STG-SDF conflict escalates. SDF agrees to withdraw from Deir Hafer in exchange for a ceasefire, but the STG & tribal auxiliaries keep advancing despite the ceasefire. Revolts by Arab tribes inside of the SDF and them losing a lot of territory makes them sign an integration agreement that basically amounts to capitulation.

Potential prison break by tribals?
>>2655086Thanks for making the OP, anon. Appreciated.
>>2655092>Potential prison break by tribals?Probably a mix of tribal elements within and outside of the government official ranks, and ISIS remnants within and outside the government official ranks.
Are the rumors that the STG is releasing people from Aqtan true?
It's literally 100% composed of ISIS prisoners, so they can't play the "they are just smol bean dissidents that the SDF unjustly arrested". Ughhhhhh
Good riddance, space cowboys. This is what happens when a "socialist" movement isn't multipolarista: pogroms and genocide.
>>2655086okay someone please explain to me how the democratic system works (or rather worked) in Rojava.
Rojava was only about ~20% Kurdish and 40% of the SDF was Arab, or something along those lines.
Now, when HTS/SAA moved into Rojavan-held territories, a lot soldiers defected, people welcomed Damascus with open arms and suddenly everyone swapped sites very fast, which would imply they did not feel any loyalty for Rojava.
BUT what I dont understand is, why did they even stay loyal to Rojava for so long in the first place then? how did elections turn out the way they did if they didnt like them?
>>2655116The YPG and Rojavistas got money from the US government. It was an op from the start and only fools ever supported them.
>>2655120Soviets got money from US, were the bolsheviks an op too?
>>2655116> how did elections turn out the way they did if they didnt like them?They never had elections due to the civil war, last time they tried Turkey bombed them to make it stop.
Foza Yusif: The public must be vigilant and prepared for all eventualities.
Foza Yusif, a member of the Presidential Council of the Democratic Union Party (PYD), made a statement on her social media account.
Foza Yusif, stating that Damascus did not abide by the ceasefire it declared, wrote, "Clashes continue in Shaddadi and Ain Issa. Therefore, our people must be vigilant and prepared for all eventualities. Furthermore, since the Kurds in Rojava are facing the threat of genocide, we call on Kurdish forces to declare a general mobilization."
DKP/BÖG called for increased solidarity with Rojava.
In a written statement, the Central Committee of the DKP/BÖG said, “The Rojava revolution has entered a historic and critical juncture. The HTS regime, backed by imperialist powers, is intensifying its attacks to liquidate the Rojava revolution. The Turkish state, in the background, has mobilized all its resources to liquidate the Rojava revolution.”
The statement read, “Under these circumstances, our party calls on the Turkish working class and laborers to raise the banner of internationalist solidarity with the Rojava revolution. Today is the day to stand shoulder to shoulder with the revolutionaries of Rojava who defeated ISIS and resist all forms of occupation.”
"Our party is aware that the political stance taken in this historical conjuncture will be a historical one," said DKP/BÖG, adding, "With this awareness, we must act in all areas where we are present, with the understanding that the liberation of the Turkish working class and laborers also depends on the realization of the Kurdish nation's right to self-determination."
Underlining their awareness of the great sacrifices made by the Kurdish people in winning the Rojava revolution, the DKP/BÖG concluded: “Today, in the ranks of the Turkish working class, in the streets, in the squares, in the revolutionary war trenches, by raising the banner of internationalist solidarity with the Kurdish people, we once again emphasize that we will be worthy of the immortal Communards and the immortals who created the Rojava revolution. Today is the day to raise the flag of socialism on this basis and to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Kurdish people’s struggle for freedom.”
Middle East Youth Committee: The attacks are a 'national purge'
The Middle East Youth Movement held a press conference in front of the Ministry of Justice following their application to the ministry.
In a statement made on behalf of the delegation, they demanded the immediate release of Leader Apo and the restoration of all his political and civil rights.
The statement emphasized that the attacks and massacres carried out by Türkiye and HTS-backed militia groups in Aleppo and Northern and Eastern Syria constitute a policy of "national cleansing" against the Kurdish people.
The statement asserted that in Aleppo, Kurds were forcibly displaced under the pretext of "disarmament," subjected to systematic oppression and collective human rights violations. Similarly, it noted that attacks targeting civilians in Rojava were contrary to international law, drawing particular attention to the targeting of Kurdish women.
The delegation stated that Önder Apo's imprisonment violates international conventions and the fundamental requirements of a possible peace process, and that Türkiye has failed to fulfill its responsibilities towards a democratic solution based on dialogue.
The statement concluded with the following words: “We hold all parties responsible for these violations fully accountable, both legally and morally; we call on the international community, human rights organizations, and the United Nations to take urgent action, to stop the violations, to protect civilians, and to ensure that the perpetrators are held accountable. We emphasize that lasting peace is impossible without respect for agreements, and that justice is impossible while political prisoners remain; we demand the immediate and unconditional release of Comrade Abdullah Öcalan, the guarantee of all his legal rights, and the recognition of the linguistic, cultural, civil, political, economic, and social rights of the Kurdish people and the people of North-East Syria.”
Fuck this shit. Entire kurdish people and all other minorities are about to be exterminated ISIS-style immediately. There are gore photos of Raqqa massacres of civilians who failed to escape due to withdrawal. THE SDF FORCES ARE BEING ORDRED TO NOT FIRE AT GOVERNMENT FORCES AS THEY MASSACRE!!!
Fuck this shit. Kill all ISIS and their sympathizers.
its alright
the arak soviet is arming as we speak and will come to help the Rojava bookchinist comrades
>>2655145THE SDF is being ordered to not fire as they advance. Fuck the leadership who sold out. The kurds will have to fight to last man as ISIS wants revenge. It will be fight to kill as many of those cockroaches as possible.
If you have a xitter account, share and attack terrorists who shamelessly promote extermination and a holocaust in region, mine is banned.
>>2655145should've thought about all of that before opposing Assad
>>2655149You are fucking retarded.
YPG and SDF did not fire a single bullet at Assad for several years, your favorite americucked HTS and Jewlani were you fucking bitch ape
Is that what you can say as millions are about to be exterminated while your precious ba'athist ministers and generals command the islamist forces?
>>2655150it is not enough to not be anti-Assad, you have to be fanatically pro-Assad. You were not. Now die, at the hands of the Sunni scum that you brought to power. Die, bookchinist retard, die.
>>2655120You have Hezb flag. Your austerity police is kept alive by IMF bucks
Lol STG is already accusing the SDF of releasing ISIS prisoners in Shaddad even though tribals were the only ones near & inside the prison when they arrived.
>>2655166 (samefag)
This also means we have confirmation that ~1000 ISIS veterans are loose.
>>2655166>>2655175STG and associated subhuman network are infuriating liars and faggots in same category with zionists.
They are not human.
>>2655145It's the same problem as always. Nation-building. If there was worker power in the form of armed soviets, the war would continue even behind the front. Let's see, there were some talks about defiying that SDF order.
>>2655116US money. The Kurds could obtain oil revenues through the logistics and technical support of delta crescent, gulfsands petroleum and some other oil companies still operating in the region par.
since the fall of Al-Assad, they simply stopped the lifeline. the production waned, the government in Damascus got massive credits and access to international markets, which allows them to buy oil from elsewhere some source:
https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/syria-exports-first-crude-oil-shipment-14-years-official-says-2025-09-01/ Assad had little access to oil markets, Kurds mostly sold their oil production to Assad government, but they also sent some to Iraq, but not in official international trade way, but as smuggling act, half of its production lost because now HTS/Al Jolani can get stuff from elsewhere, and it's half of Kurd's profits lost.
>>2655129picrel.
the level of economic impact it's laughable, lib.
>>2655150>PG and SDF did not fire a single bullet at Assad for several yearsthey fired the worst bullet: selling their oil to Assad, as if they were two distinc nations.
they can sell it now in…. *check notes*. you are not gonna like it.
Btw even if the STG is serious about re-capturing the ISIS escapees, it's made difficult by the fact that it's currently night, and also the issue of many army/security personnel + tribals are sympathetic to them.
what are they going to do with these 10-15000 isis takfirists roaming around?
>>2655309>what are they going to do with these 10-15000 isis takfirists roaming around?Uhhh, integrate them into the SAA?
>>2655309The Shaddad ones are like only 1000 I think.
The STG itself still (either accidentally or purposefully) released a lot more ISIS members when they indiscriminately emptied every prison controlled by the SDF. So the number's indeed slightly higher than that.
The real problem is Al-Hol, btw. It has 25,000 ISIS in it, though it isn't just adult male veterans like Shaddad.
Metîna village has taken up arms in response to the threat of an attack on Kobanê.
The attacks by the occupying Turkish state and armed groups loyal to Damascus against Northern and Eastern Syria continue relentlessly. Armed groups affiliated with the Interim Government of Damascus and supported by the Turkish state have intensified their attacks and attempts to besiege Kobanê, a city in the Euphrates Canton.
According to reports, fierce clashes are taking place between Turkish-backed armed groups and SDF and YPJ fighters in the area between the city of Eyn Îsa and the village of Ebu Sira in Kobanê. The fighting is reported to intensify intermittently.
In response to the threat of attack, young people and villagers in Metina village, located east of Kobanê, have begun preparing for defense. The people of Metina, wanting to protect their village and living spaces, have taken up arms.
The people of Hesekê set off towards Şedadê to join the resistance.
The Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria had declared a general mobilization against the attacks carried out by militia groups supported by the Turkish state and affiliated with the Syrian Interim Government against North and East Syria. The people of Hasakah, participating in the general mobilization against the militia attacks, moved towards Shaddadi, where clashes were taking place, to support the resistance of the SDF and YPJ fighters.
Armed civilians joined the resistance alongside the fighters and set off in a convoy of dozens of vehicles.
Clashes in the area between Ain Issa and Abu Sira
According to information obtained, clashes broke out between SDF-YPJ fighters and the mercenaries of the interim government supported by the occupying Turkish state in the area between the city of Ayn Issa and the village of Abu Sira in the Euphrates canton.
The fight continues.
>>2655355prepare for dozens of Sunni retards trampling over Kurdish corpses with the fanatic "OLLAH HOOAKBAAAR" screeching
>>2655381Damn was almost about to post these.
Looks like pro-STG tribals since they're non-uniformed.
Saw someone post this on reddit as summary
>Syrian Army right now is not like a military with discipline and uniform. It is made up multiple militias and also Arab tribes have merged with them (60% of SDF who switched sides). SDF collapsed, and the Kurdish parts (YPG/YPJ) of it remain. YPG/YPJ were the bulk and also minority of SDF and are concentrated in areas near Turkish border where Kurds live.
Ceasefire was announced yesterday, and everyone was ordered to stop advancing and halt at the frontlines of yesterday, but there is a main group no one has authority over: Arab Tribes of Deir ez-Zour and Raqqa. Also some militias of Syrian Army are still advancing. Kurdish forces have left everything and are defending Kurdish cities on the Turkish border.
Yesterday the Kurdish commander-in-chief was supposed to be in Damascus, but for unknown reasons he didn't go. So Syrian officials signed the agreement on his behalf and released it. He went there a few hours ago today.
As for why Kurdish forces fight: the deal says Kurdish cities has "special status", whatever that may mean is not clear, so Kurdish forces are not yet letting Syrian Army/Arab Tribes (who hold a deep grudge against Kurds, for various reasons) enter their cities until they hear from their chief who is now in Damascus.
They also fought them near the two prisons that hold the ISIS prisoners and retreated. They didn't want Arab Tribes to have access to ISIS prisoners as many of them are their own relatives and will obviously try to free them. As for the fate of what happened to ISIS prisoners as of right now we don't know. I have seen unconfirmed reports that an unspecific number of them have been freed.
There is also Al-Hol camp where Kurds are still trying to keep at their hands since last reports I saw. It includes 25000-35000 family members of ISIS.
Per an SDF announcement a few hours ago they contacted American forces to take care of prisons and Al-Hol camp, but they are not interfering.
