Iran in Major Trouble Following Assad’s Fall; Middle East Dynamics May Shift

The fall of Bashar al-Assad in Syria marks a significant blow to Iran. With this development, Iran will lose its ability to expand influence in the Lebanon region. This also cuts off Iran’s access to its key ally, Hezbollah, via land routes. As a result, Palestinian factions like Hamas are expected to face challenges as well.

These insights come from reports published by BBC and Al Arabiya.

Assad’s government previously positioned itself as part of the “Axis of Resistance,” which provided support to Palestinian groups from Syria. Now, with Assad gone, such support is unlikely, leaving Iran’s adversary, Israel, immensely pleased. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed this sentiment in a video statement. From the start, Israel has supported Syrian rebels, and the rebels have publicly expressed gratitude for Israel’s assistance.

In an interview with Israel’s Kan broadcaster earlier this week, a rebel spokesperson praised Israel, stating, “We love Israel and have never considered it an enemy. We do not hate you; we love you deeply.” This statement has sent shockwaves through Iran.

Meanwhile, following Assad’s fall, the rebel coalition leader Abu Mohammad al-Jolani delivered his first victory speech on Sunday night (December 8) at the historic Umayyad Mosque in Damascus. CNN reported this victory address on Monday (December 9).

In his speech, al-Jolani declared the beginning of a new era for Syria, issuing strong warnings to Iran and Russia.

Al-Jolani stated that Syria’s territory will no longer serve as a platform for the interests of Iran and Russia. Instead, it will be an independent nation free from foreign influence.

He also made it clear that he would not tolerate Iranian and Russian interference in Syria’s internal affairs. Additionally, he hinted at blocking Hezbollah, Iran’s ally, from entering Syrian territory.
