Syrian Rebels Have Captured Hama, A Strategic Central City | Syria News | Aleppo Syria | N18G

Syrian rebels, led by the Islamist militant group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), seized control of Hama after government forces withdrew, marking another major setback for President Bashar al-Assad. HTS leader Abu Mohammad al-Julani declared victory, pledging no revenge, while rebels captured Hama Central Prison and released inmates. This follows their recent capture of Aleppo and advances southward from northwestern Syria. Fierce fighting preceded the fall of Hama, but the battle concluded swiftly after the rebels entered the city. Syria's defense minister called the withdrawal a "temporary technical measure" and asserted that government forces remain positioned around Hama, prepared to act.
