The significant event that happened recently is rebel groups in Syria have overthrown Bashar Al Assad's government forces and caused him to exit and claim asylum in another territory.
The last time Bashar Assad lost control of his country, it didn't end well. The rebel groups merged with groups in Iraq and formed a Califate called Isis. The Khalifa of Isis ordered all the Christian and Yazidi men in the region to be exterminated and their women to be slaves. We all saw large multitudes of Christians being lined up by river banks and shot in the head.
I think the rebel forces attacked the Syrian authorities because their ally Russia was busy dealing with their own war against Ukraine. It was received as an invitation to the rebels I guess.
I won't lie, I worry about them. I don't like communities being killed.
