Recent news/rumors in Syria:
🔺️The SDF is postponing the implementation of the recently signed January 18 agreement
🔺️The SDF is now demanding expanded rights above what is mentioned in the January 18 agreement
🔺️The SDF demands semi-autonomy is kurdish-held cities and demands to have their own military infrastructure and command chain that isnt under the Ministry of Defence or Interior
🔺️The SDF also demands complete control over Qamishli airport, complete control over the border gates with Turkey and Iraq Kurdistan
🔺️The SDF also dem️amds complete control over the rem️aining oil fields under their control and allocate a specific share to the SDF that doesnt include the money required to finance the municipals under their control; i-e, the Syrian govt will pay from their pocket the expenses for municipalities under kurdish rule while allocating another share of oil profits to SDF commanders and Barzani's regime
🔺️The SDF is succeeding gathering more political support from abroad; recently, the Portugese parliament ratified the Rojava bill that aims to protect kurds in Syria and many US congress members led by lindsay graham vowed to overthrow Sharaa if he ever thought of fighting the SDF again
🔺️Finally, according to some trashy kurdish news sites, with the help of Israeli-led efforts, it seems that the SDF has convinced a decent sum of US congress members to try and adopt a similar system to Iraq; i-e, formation of a semi-autonomous Iraqi kurdistan in Syria
🔺️The SDF wants to preserve the education curriculum they currently teach; the one in which they insult the prophet, and change the geography by stating there is no Syria and Turkey but greater kurdistan. They also want all the certificates that they give to those who succeed in such a curriculum be recognised across all of Syria
🔺️There is tension between Al-Hijri militias and the people in Suwaydah. It is reported that people are fed up with him and his other cronies and some sources (unverified) reports that Al-Hijri aims to use the Hebrew language as an official language and prepare Israeli passports to everyone in suwaydah as an effort to try and force Israel to aid him militarily
🔺️Israel, on the other hand, is willing to betray the druze as long as they get Mount Hermon
Summary: The SDF returned to their stalling tactics just like with the March 10 agreement last year, however they do have more "amunition" compared to before. This is probably done on orders from Israel! Idk what will happen next, but if the SDF/PKK continues on this path, the only way to get rid of this cancer is through war
