"The lightning offensive changes the balance of power in the country. Are there wider implications for Kurds beyond Syria?"
The Syrian army captured areas previously under Kurdish-led control, seizing territory long held by Kurdish forces before declaring a ceasefire. The offensive was rapid and shifted the balance of power within Syria. The seizure of these territories reduces Kurdish territorial autonomy and alters local security dynamics. The operation raises questions about broader consequences for Kurdish populations and political movements beyond Syrian borders. Political and military analysts and regional experts contributed perspectives on strategic implications and future scenarios. The ceasefire suggests a temporary halt while longer-term arrangements remain uncertain.
