Is Syria headed for partition? Mehr News, a news agency with ties to Iran's Revolutionary Guards, is raising the possibility. They claim continued "occupation" could divide Syria into three regions, potentially destabilizing Iraq as well.

๐จ SYRIA ON THE BRINK! ๐จ Homs falls, Damascus & Latakia besieged. Rebranded jihadists surge as the regime teeters. Northeast Syria faces a nightmare scenario. This isnโt just a war, itโs a REGIONAL EARTHQUAKE. Iraq & Jordan brace for the aftershocks. #Syria #Homs #Damascus #Jihadists #MiddleEast

Just a correction: The rebels today captured Hama, not Homs (at least yet)

The potential for limited American and Western support to mitigate this threat appears increasingly doubtful.

The situation for Kurdish forces and their allies in northeastern Syria is equally precarious. Control of western Syria by rebranded jihadist elements would place the SDF in an untenable position, pressured by Turkey from the north and jihadists from the west.

They suggest that rebel control of Homs could leave the Syrian regime confined to the capital and Latakia, potentially facing a scenario analogous to the collapse of Republican Spain in 1939. Consequently, all scenarios, including regime collapse, must now be considered.

Multiple sources within the country, contacted in recent hours, express deep pessimism regarding the trajectory of the conflict.

Dramatic developments continue to unfold in Syria. The capture of Homs, a mere six days after the fall of Aleppo, constitutes a major turning point in the ongoing civil war.
