From November 27, 2024, with the support of some countries, terrorist groups attacked the positions of the Syrian army and towns and villages in the northwestern and western regions of Syria. The Syrian authorities have so far on various occasions considered the Turkish government as a supporter of the armed groups based in northern Syria and have demanded an end to this support and an end to the occupation of the northern Syrian territory by the Turkish army.
These terrorist attacks against the positions of the Syrian army violated the ceasefire agreement concluded in 2020 because these areas are included in the “de-escalation” agreement signed with the guarantee of Turkey in Astana, which includes areas in Idlib, the outskirts of Aleppo and parts of Hama and Latakia.
