Aleppo City Council calls on people and private sector companies, including contractors, who have vehicles and to mobilize and support the public sector institutions and service directorates and contribute to rescue operations, especially in popular neighborhoods.

Initial death toll exceeded 50 deaths in Aleppo and its countryside due to the earthquake along with dozens of injuries.

Several buildings have fallen in #Aleppo, #Idlib, #Lattakia #Homs and #Hama governorates.

Rescue teams are still searching for survivors under collapsed buildings.

Sea water retreated 20 meters after the earthquake, while the he European Mediterranean Center for Seismological Monitoring says that they are assessing the possibility of giant tsunami waves.

3 hours have passed and we can still feel the aftershocks

The #US Central Command #CENTCOM said that it killed a senior leader of Al-#Qaeda with a drone strike in #Idlib, #Syria, at 11:42 am on May 3.

While the statement did not mention the identity of the targeted person, nor did it provide any other details, local sources confirmed that the victim is a civilian shepherd "Lutfi Hassan Masto" (60 years old), which was killed while he was grazing sheep on the outskirts of "Qurqanya" town, north of Idlib.
The strike also killed several sheep.

Russian air forces targeted #HTS positions in Shiekh Bahr area west of #Idlib this morning with at least 4 airstrikes.

I've counted at least 226 strikes that targeted terrorists positions in northwestern Syria since Dec 15 last year, and they are definitely more.
Airstrikes, artillery and missile strikes all carried out in Syrian-Russian coordination only.

I repeat "only Syrian-Russian coordination"

Those promoting for an alleged"Turkish intelligence cooperation" need to review their information and check their sources.
Had there been any Turkish intelligence cooperation, they wouldn't have killed several Syrian Arab Army soldier with a drone strike few days ago, and targeted a Russian armoured vehicle two days before that!!

All strikes targeting terrorists in the north are purely the efforts of the Syrian Russian intelligence work only.

Since yesterday morning, Syrian Arab Army artillery and missiles have been targeting the positions of the terrorist organizations in Idlib, "Ansar al-Tawhid", "HTS" and the "Turkistani Islamic Party", while the #Russian Aerospace Forces carried out large-scale and intense airstrikes targeting the headquarters of these organizations in #Idlib and north #Lattakia this night, 8 raids were counted so far.

Syrian Arab Army is sending a clear message: "Military choice is always on the table, but we don't need a wide-scale operation to response to your provocations, heavy intense fire would do"

❗️🇷🇺🇸🇾 Crisis in Syria (Syrian desert and border areas): third day of aid convoys arriving in Aleppo
Situation as of the end of December 1, 2024

In the desert at the junction of the Homs, Hama and Deir ez-Zor provinces, the battle of fakes, rumors and hearsay for primacy in the information agenda continues.

▪️On the very first day, there were reports of the mobilization of the "Free Syrian Army" (ex-"Jaysh Maghawir al-Thawra") forces, trained at the US base in At-Tanf, and their alleged advance either towards Palmyra, Tifor or even Damascus.

The group's strength is a few hundred people, and theoretically they could have infiltrated through the desert - especially given the withdrawal of troops. But so far, there is no objective evidence of this in the public domain.

▪️From Deir ez-Zor, the Bakkarah tribe loyal to Bashar Assad allegedly set out on the first day and went almost in full force to Aleppo. Similarly, parts of the 4th division of Maher Assad allegedly moved out from Deir ez-Zor, although it seems they were not even there.

▪️This did not prevent the militants (both ISIS and HTS with the SNA) from claiming that the convoys heading to aid Assad had already been bombed by the militants. Some wrote about ISIS, others about the "Free Syrian Army" from Et-Tanf. As a result, no one went anywhere and no one killed anyone.

📍But real reinforcements set out on the third day.

Footage appeared in Sout showing Iraqi "Al-Hashd al-Shaabi" detachments crossing the border with Syria at the official border crossing of Al-Bu Kamal from the Iraqi Al-Qaim. Given that the Iranian military base named after Imam Ali is quite close to Al-Bu Kamal, and further west there is a road leading directly to Palmyra from the south, it is logical to assume that the reinforcements split into several columns, and the footage captured only one of them.

📌The column was immediately "destroyed" in the media, with claims of an attack by the Americans. In fact, the explosions were attributed to the work of the Syrian military against roaming militants in the desert (which once again confirms the activity of terrorists).

As we have already written, the appearance of the Iranian "Al-Hashd al-Shaabi" detachments should not be recorded as an unambiguous Iranian move, since the Al-Hashd al-Shaabi certainly do not consider themselves to be openly pro-Iranian groups. In this case, it is primarily about assistance from Iraq.

📎🇸🇾 It appears that another dramatic chapter in Syria's recent history is coming to an end in Aleppo Province. The Kurdish enclave in Tell Rifaat and Ash-Sheikh Maksoud is being evacuated eastward after reaching agreements with HTS and SNA militants.

As a result, there are no longer any zones in Aleppo controlled by non-militants. Most of the province has been almost completely seized by armed groups.

In this context, it is interesting that those responsible for the media of pro-Turkish militants remember the successful cases from 2015-2020 well. Just as with the evacuation of the "moderate opposition" from Daraa and other parts of Syria, green buses were used to transport the Kurds.

The militants' propagandists did not miss the opportunity to boast about this fact, clearly keeping in mind the events of past years.

🔻At the same time, the departure of the Kurds was expected given their encirclement. But the Syrian Democratic Forces are highly likely preparing for a new confrontation, as the pro-Turkish militants with Turkey's backing have no intention of stopping.

Moreover, as practice shows, it is extremely foolish to conclude peace agreements with those who will never abide by them. Turkish drones actively struck areas under SDF control throughout the militants' operation.
