Syrian Army Deploys Reinforcements to Eastern Aleppo Amid Rising Tensions with SDF

The Syrian army deployed additional military reinforcements on Wednesday to the eastern countryside of Aleppo, amid increasing tensions with the YPG/SDF, according to Syrian media reports.

SANA news agency reported that troops and equipment were sent from the coastal province of Latakia to the Deir Hafer area in eastern Aleppo, though no further details were provided.

The deployment follows earlier intelligence indicating the arrival of additional armed groups affiliated with the SDF near the towns of Maskanah and Deir Hafer, prompting Syrian authorities to bolster their military presence in the region.
