Rebel forces led by the group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham swept through Syria, seizing Damascus. AdvertisementBashar Assad's 24-year rule came to an end on Sunday as rebels swept into Damascus, the Syrian capital. Jolani later returned to Syria, his homeland, where he fought with Jabhat Al-Nusra — an Al Qaeda offshoot formed in 2012 — and other rebel groups against Assad's forces. Jolani severed his ties with Al Qaeda in 2016 and formed a new group, which eventually became HTS in 2017. "Old-school Al Qaeda or the Islamic State would never have done that."

"They are giving them at best basics and at worst nothing and throwing them into combat, which suggests that these guys are just literally cannon fodder," William Alberque, a specialist in the Russian armed forces, told the Times. One user on social media claimed Russian soldiers were living in "inhumane conditions" and had to provide themselves with food, the Times reported.
