What is happening in the country are expected challenges. We must preserve national unity and civil peace among Syrians,

he emphasized

The crisis has passed safely,

Al-Sharaa stated after attending dawn prayers at a mosque in the Al Mezzeh district of Damascus, as shown in a video shared on social media

I've lost seven friends since yesterday. My aunt was killed today near the city of Jableh; she was 78. Please protect us from this holocaust. We are pleading for help,

wrote a desperate Syrian citizen to Haaretz on Saturday

She said, ‘I am from Idlib. All my family is from Idlib. Please don’t do anything to these people. They are peaceful family,

Wala recounted in a phone interview

I’m shocked, I’m just shocked,

said Mr. Moustafa, a pharmacist

I was so scared for my baby, for my wife,

Mr. Moustafa, 30, said in a telephone interview

I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. I was terrified, terrified,

said Wala, who asked to be identified only by her first name for fear of retribution

We have to get out of here as soon as possible,

he added

Maybe they will just come here and say we are against them and kill us,

he said

Six hospitals in the rural areas of Latakia and Tartus were directly attacked by remnants of the fallen regime last night, leading to the martyrdom of several individuals, the injury of others, and significant damage to infrastructure,

Remnants of the former regime sought to test the new Syria,

Those who bet on chaos do not yet realize that the era of tyranny has ended,

The only reason I escaped was I managed to convince them I was Sunni and not an Alawite,

he said

This time, everything indicates that the attacks were premeditated, well-coordinated and planned. We were confronted with simultaneous assaults by heavily armed men with foreign communications systems,

asserted Nasser Zidane, in charge of the media office for the new local authorities in Latakia
