From Têkoşîna Anarşîst
Negotiations between the new administration in Damascus and the SDF continue, but it is clear that any agreement is out of reach, specially after SNA forces (turkish proxies) are being promoted inside the ranks of the new Syrian army. With Trump on the white house and his calls for US forces to withdraw, the future of the autonomous administration it’s very uncertain.
From Remember Omar Aziz
The regime has fallen. Assad is gone. This is an important victory for all revolutionaries, but especially for Syrian revolutionaries.

Heavy clashes in Eufrates region
A massive SNA attack on the strategic hill near Tishrin dam was repelled by the SDF, inflicting heavy losses in SNA ranks. Air units of the SDF (drones) published videos of 2 armored vehicles and another military vehicle being destroyed. After the clashes, turkish planes bombed the area, damaging some of SDF’s armored vehicles.

The rapid collapse of Assad's army, which ended the half-century rule of this family in just 11 days, became perhaps the main event of December for many in Ukraine. The Ukrainian government praises the victory of the pro-Turkish forces as a brilliant victory over Russia, despite the fact that it itself increasingly risks repeating the fate of the deposed dictator.

This week, we’re sharing a conversation with Errico, a combatant member of Tekoşîna Anarşist, an internationalist anarchist formation in critical solidarity with the Rojava Revolution. For this episode, Errico answers some questions we had about what’s been happening in Syria and concerns from within the Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria. You can find ideas and updates from the TA formation on their blog, https://tekosinaanarsist.noblogs.org. Past interviews with TA can be found here.

On the Collapse of Assad, the Future of Russia, and the Looming Turkish-Backed Invasion
The Syrian revolution started off as a bottom-up, working class uprising from the peripheries organised through local coordination committees. They set up local councils throughout the liberated areas that coordinated to provide services in the absence of a state.
They actually experienced life without the state, and they thrived. They were the living proof that not only can it be done, but that it can be fun and meaningful. Libraries, clinics, hospitals, schools, soup kitchens and more - all organised by the people who belonged to their communities.

The regime has fallen, the war continues.
The revolutionary dreams of millions of Syrians that flooded the streets in 2011 has finally become reality: the regime has fallen. After decades of Assad’s dynasty, today we woke up in a Syria without functional central government. The Syrian State has collapsed.

As we wait to hear if Bashar al-Assad has already fled Damascus or fallen to a coup, here are a few thoughts about what might come next. Syria may well prove to be a linchpin of West Asia, as the civil war of 2012-2018 has suddenly reignited. Just two weeks after a surprise offensive in the northwest of the country by Sunni fundamentalists, all of Assad’s many enemies are sweeping the country and by tomorrow morning his regime may have definitively collapsed.
