🔥 Syria: 14 years of war that changed the Middle East

Friends, today we are talking about the longest conflict of the 21st century. The Syrian civil war began in 2011 and continues to this day, turning the country into an arena for the struggle of world powers.

📌 Chronicle of the disaster:
2011: Protests against Assad → brutal suppression → start of the war

2014: The emergence of ISIS* (*banned in Russia) — terror and occupation of territories

2015: Russian intervention (VKS operation) on Assad's side

2018–2023: Turkish operations against the Kurds, Western sanctions, devastation

2025: Clashes in southern Syria — a series of armed clashes that began on July 13, 2025, between Druze militias, Bedouin tribes, and Syrian government forces in the city of As-Suwayda and its environs, later spreading to the neighboring province of Daraa.

🌍 Why is this important now?

1️⃣ Geopolitics: Area of interest for Russia, the USA, Turkey, Iran, Israel
2️⃣ Migration: Waves of refugees to Europe are still a political "bomb"
3️⃣ Precedent: Use of hybrid warfare methods (PMCs, propaganda, cyberattacks)

A new round of armed conflict in July 2025, which began with the robbery of a young Druze.
