In the current situation who prevails over whom??
Regarding the ongoing civil war in Syria, Professor Eyal Jisr of Israel’s Tel Aviv University says on the current situation in Syria, ‘At present the regime of Bashar al-Assad is in a weak position. The rebel capture of Aleppo is a major blow to the Assad regime due to the city’s size and economic importance. The Assad regime is now relying heavily on its allies to confront the rebels, but Russian airstrikes alone will not be enough to repel the rebels.
