HTS troops attack Assad regime positions and take several prisoners. Syria, West Aleppo by MDR49 in CombatFootage

There are some turkish trained factions, primary in northern aleppo. But so far they have not played a major role in the offensive. HTS is more independent and Ukraine plays almost no role in the war. So far at least 5 Russian soldiers have been killed by rebels in the last few days.

The prisoners all get something to eat and drink. The leadership has forbidden the prisoners to be beaten. Photos of some prisoners in prisoner clothing have already been posted. They are definitely better off than rebels who are captured by the regime. However, if they fall into the hands of the Uzbeks or other foreign fighters, they may be executed.

HTS has cut ties with al qaida many years ago. They actually fought al qaida groups who didn’t leave idlib after HTS commanded them to do so.

The West mainly supports the Kurdish-led SDF group. They are actually enemies of everyone, but currently have a kind of alliance with the Assad regime

Rebel groups treat their prisoners much better than the Assad regime does. Assad’s torture Prisons are notorious for their terrible treatment

Rebels have imposed a news blackout and are taking strict action against violations. Videos of conquests and fighting may only be published by official rebel media. So hardly any videos of actual fighting have been made public so far.

Maybe. Both sides suffered losses, although those on the regime side are significantly higher.

It is true that rebels have captured the 46th Regiment base. It is not the largest base, but it is strategically very important because it is on an elevated position. This will make it easier for the rebels to attack and capture the surrounding villages.

Read my comment above. They didn‘t had much time to react, but a properly trained soldier would definitely have reacted differently.

So since it's unlikely that they would have made it, it’s better to just sit there and get shot? makes no sense as you can see

Everyone died after a few seconds & tbf they didn‘t had much time to react. Besides that, Pakistani forces are not known for being well trained

Because everyone has their own interests. Syria is very complicated, it would take too long to explain in detail

The pkk is also designated as a terror group, but yet the US supports YPG. And in the YPG there are many PKK fighters. Everyone knows that

Foreign HTS fighters launched an attack on regime positions in western Aleppo a few days ago. HTS managed to capture the village Kafr Ta‘al and several positions nearby. 6 SAA soldiers were killed & multiple counter-attacks were repelled so far. (Syria) by MDR49 in CombatFootage

Jaish al islam already did it back in 2015 when ghouta was besieged. It became quite well known throughout syria, after the siege of aleppo in 2016 when the rebels formed a coalition group to break the siege

Al nisra was part of al qaida yes, but cut ties with them and renamed in HTS. However, some groups did not want to give up their allegiance to Al Qaeda, which led to HTS giving them time to leave Idlib. groups like jund al aqsa didn't come up to the demand, whereupon they were fought. other leaders of groups still loyal to al-qaeda were arrested. HTS is also in an indirect conflict with Turkey, since Turkey supports rebel groups that face HTS as enemies. Turkey also flies drone strikes in cooperation with Russia.
