Islamist militias launch offensive in north-west Syria
In north-western Syria, Islamist militias have launched an offensive on areas of the Syrian regime north of Aleppo.
According to local reports, the militias are currently advancing towards the city of millions from the Idlib region. They have already captured several villages and smaller towns. A further advance is reported from the south.
At least 60 people are said to have been killed since the morning. The aim of the offensive is still unclear, but the Syrian army has sent reinforcements to the region and launched airstrikes.
The north-west of Syria has been held by Islamist military forces, such as the al-Qaeda successor HTS, for years. At the beginning of the civil war, the region was a stronghold of the opposition to Assad. Various actors, such as Turkey, armed the militias to assert their own interests.

Islamists expand offensive in Syria
Islamist militias, such as HTS and SNA, have expanded their offensive in north-western Syria. They are now said to be attacking not only the Syrian army west of the megacity of Aleppo, but also the Shehba region further north, which belongs to the Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria. Hundreds of thousands of Kurds who were displaced by the occupation of Afrin in 2018 live there.
During the night, militias allied with Turkey are said to be firing artillery at positions of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). The first battles are said to have already taken place on the ground along the front line. Turkey also carried out air strikes on Tel Rifaat in Shehba and Ain Issa further east.
The SDF began to send reinforcements to the Manbij region during the night, although Shehba is an enclave trapped between Turkish-occupied areas and regime areas.

Escalation in Syria: Islamists Loyal to Turkey Launch Attack on Kurdish Areas
Following the outbreak of the heaviest fighting in Syria in several years, Kurdish areas are now under acute threat from attacks by jihadist groups cooperating with Turkey. While the Islamist group Haiat Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS), the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda formerly known as al-Nusra Front, has been advancing on Aleppo since Wednesday and fighting with the Assad regime’s forces, the Turkish-loyal mercenaries of the so-called Syrian National Army (SNA) are currently preparing a major attack on the Kurdish region of Tal Rifaat in northwestern Syria. The Turkish army is already bombing the region from the air and on the ground. Attacks on the Kurdish town of Ain Issa have also been reported. According to local sources, Turkey has also opened the border to northwestern Syria, allowing more jihadist fighters to enter Syria.

📢 Alert: People of Sheikh Meqsoud pledge to resist Turkish backed invasion in Aleppo
While large parts of the city of Aleppo have already fallen, many civilians have found refuge in the self-governing district of Sheikh Maqsoud. Meanwhile, the self-defense forces in the self-governed districts are preparing for resistance and the population is cleaning their weapons. Shouts of “Biji Berxwedana Sheikh Maqsoud” (Long live the resistance of Sheikh Maqsoud) and “An Serkeftin An Serkeftin” (success and nothing but success) are heard everywhere. Similarly, columns of the YPG and YPJ reached the city on Friday evening and were greeted by applauding people.

"We strongly condemn and denounce the attack launched by the Turkish state and its terrorists on Syrian territory, and we salute the historic resistance shown by our people in! Aleppo and Tel-Rifaat."
"This attack led by the Turkish state represents a continuation of the plan that Turkey failed to achieve through ISIS and its goal is to occupy Syria and achieve the borders of the "Turkish National Pact" that the Turkish state has repeatedly sought to implement."

⚡️ Turkish backed Islamists launch offensive against Rojava
According to the latest reports, Islamist militias allied with Turkey have launched an offensive against the democratic self-administration in northern and eastern Syria (Rojava).
The Tel Rifaat region south of the Afrin region, which was occupied in 2018, and the Kurdish districts of Aleppo are currently at risk of being surrounded by Islamist forces. A number of advances in the region have also been reported, although the exact extent cannot yet be estimated.
The self-administration had already declared a general mobilization at midday in order to protect the region and defend the self-administration.
According to estimates, around 200,000 refugees from Afrin live in the region alongside the local population, and the Islamist militias currently invading the region have repeatedly committed atrocities and war crimes against the local population since 2018.

Update by Rojava Information Center
Since yesterday, HTS has consolidated and continued their incursion into Syrian government territories. In the last few hours, Turkish-backed SNA factions have advanced and captured more villages in Shehba, a region under the DAANES’ administration.
RIC interviewed Menan Cehfer, a resident of the Sheikh Maqsoud neighborhood in Aleppo, who says, “The situation is getting darker. Basic needs such as water, electricity, and bread are running out. We are under siege. It seems the militias are using an indirect approach to make us surrender. However, for us, surrender is not an option.”
Clashes are currently taking place on the outskirts of Tal Rifaat. Earlier today, Turkey shelled villages on the border between Shehba and Turkish-occupied territories.

Statement by Our SDF Commander-in-Chief Mazlum Abdi Regarding the Recent Developments in Northwestern Syria
The situation in northwest Syria has developed rapidly and suddenly, with our forces facing intense attacks from multiple fronts. Following the collapse and withdrawal of the Syrian Army and its allies, we intervened to establish a humanitarian corridor between our eastern regions, Aleppo, and the Tal Rifaat, with the aim of protecting our people from potential massacres.
The attacks of the armed groups backed by the Turkish occupation have disrupted this corridor.
Our forces have valiantly defended our people in Aleppo, Tal Rifa’at, and al-Shahba’a
We are actively coordinating with all relevant parties in Syria to ensure the safety of our people and facilitate their secure relocation from the Tal Rifa’at and Shahba’a areas to our safe areas in the northeast of the country
Concurrently, our forces continue to resist to protect our people residing in the Kurdish neighborhoods of Aleppo.

⚡️📢 Urgent Call to Action: Stand Against Turkish attacks and Jihadist Militias!
In the midst of the the ongoing war of imperial and islamist forces against the people of the Middle East, Turkey uses the situation to carry out one of the largest attacks against Rojava and Syria since 2019. As part of Turkey's Neo-Ottoman project to become the hegemonic power in the region, the Turkish state aims to liquidate revolutionary Rojava and further destabilize Syria.
We call on all democratic, revolutionary, and solidarity forces around the world to:
1. Protest against institutions & profiteers of the Turkish state
2. Organize rallies and actions to raise awareness of the attacks & expose the complicity of international powers, especially the role of Turkey and Islamist forces
3. Follow our channels, updates on the situation, calls and ACT!

Statement of Internationalists in Rojava: "Mobilize Resist Struggle !"
We should not be mistaken, the aim of those attacks is the revolution, their aim is to prevent the people of Rojava and N.E Syria to live a life of dignity and freedom, their aim is to crush the hope of another world and to put the people in slavery.
The situation is very serious and the stakes very high. Our martyrs have taught us that surrender leads to betrayal but resistance leads to victory. We will be worthy of them and continue their struggle with an unshakable determination. We call on every socialist, feminist, anti-fascist and democrat, to take a stance against those criminal attacks. Organize with your local solidarity network or create one, show your solidarity through marches and creatives actions. Turkish war machine is international, the resistance too has to be international!"
