  • Syrian Civil War Tensions Escalate Diplomatic tensions rise as Turkey threatens to 'strangle' the US-backed Syrian Border Security Force 'before its birth'. Syria vows to crush the force and expel American military personnel. Russia characterizes these plans as 'a plot against Syria', further complicating the already complex geopolitical landscape in the region.
