The Syrian Civil War began in 2011, originating from the Arab Spring protests demanding democratic reforms.
Government crackdowns on protests escalated into a full-blown conflict, with various rebel groups, including the Free Syrian Army, attempting to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad.
Extremist groups like ISIS exploited the chaos, capturing significant territories and committing severe atrocities.
International involvement deepened the conflict, with Russia and Iran supporting the Assad regime, while the US, EU, and others backed various opposition factions.
The conflict has led to a catastrophic humanitarian crisis, displacing over half of Syria’s pre-war population, with millions in need of aid and hundreds of thousands dead.
Despite numerous attempts at peace talks and ceasefires, the war has persisted, transforming into a proxy war with complex international implications.
The Assad regime has managed to regain control over most of the country, with some areas still contested by rebel forces and Kurdish groups.
The future of Syria remains uncertain, with ongoing diplomatic efforts and the continued suffering of the Syrian people.
