Major clashes happening in the Kurdish neighbourhoods of Aleppo since two days now. Biggest escalation between Damascus General Security and the SDF since the fall of Assad. Not a lot of good news to be had these days and this is one more bad one.
Analysis from https://eyeonkurdistan.substack.com/p/aleppos-kurdish-neighborhoods-under
"Against this backdrop, the assault on Ashrafiyah and Sheikh Maqsoud is not just about two neighborhoods. It is a test of whether post-Assad Syria is drifting back toward coercive centralization as a substitute for legitimacy. Taking control of parts of Aleppo will not compensate for unresolved sovereignty questions in the south, nor will it stabilize a country whose fault lines remain deep and interconnected. If allowed to escalate, the current round of fighting risks unraveling fragile agreements, reigniting broader conflict, and turning Syria once again into a theater of regional collision rather than recovery."
