The move by the the Nujaba Movement comes after Israel's debilitating blows against Iran's proxies
An Iraqi militia controlled by Iran has promised to fight alongside Syrian President Bashar Assad’s army and Hezbollah against a resurgent rebellion.
This move by the Nujaba Movement was the latest in a shift in the power balance in Syria, Newsweek reported on Saturday. Sunni rebels launched a major offensive there against their Iran-backed enemies, who have been weakened by the protracted war with Israel.
Sunni Islamist terrorists from Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS, or the “Organization for the Liberation of the Levant’), an al-Qaeda splinter faction, and a number of allied rebel militias launched a major offensive in northern Syria on Wednesday, hours after Israel and Hezbollah entered a ceasefire. In the 13-and-a-half-month war against Israel, Hezbollah lost its entire top command, thousands of fighters, hundreds of strongholds and a majority of its ballistic arsenal.
