🇸🇾🇸🇾🇸🇾🇱🇧🇱🇧 - The combination of the Israeli war on Lebanon and the HTS takeover of Syria is the beginning of the end for traditional Palestinian nationalist militant groups outside of Syria. These groups were all backed by the Assad regime and have lost all their power after the HTS takeover, leaving them powerless in face of the Lebanese army.
Independent Syrian jihadists and even the HTS administration do not possess the same power the Assad regime had over Lebanon to control these Syrian-backed Palestinian groups in the refugee camps.
However, what will happen to Hezbollah-backed Al Qassam and Saraya al Quds? What about the Palestinian jihadi factions like Fatah al-Islam? What about Lebanese and Syrian Sunni jihadi factions? Will Joseph Aoun become president, strengthening the military in the face of Hezbollah and all other factions? Time will tell.
It's important to note that the Lebanese Islamic Group (Muslim Brotherhood) has backed both Hezbollah in its war against Israel as well as the Syrian rebels against the Assad regime. HTS and Lebanese Sunni prime minister Mikati (an anti-Christian force, infamously spreading the lie that Christians are 19% of the country) joining forces is also extremely dangerous for Christians. We are dealing with wild cards.

The picture was mixed overseas. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index fell 1.6%, under pressure from U.S. regulatory scrutiny on New York-listed Chinese companies. Stocks were more buoyant in Europe, where Frankfurt’s DAX surged 1.4%. He floated the idea of restricting the use of Telegram in Ukraine and Russia, a suggestion that was met with fierce opposition from users. Shortly after, Durov backed off the idea. In this regard, Sebi collaborated with the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to reduce the vulnerability of the securities market to manipulation through misuse of mass communication medium like bulk SMS. Since January 2022, the SC has received a total of 47 complaints and enquiries on illegal investment schemes promoted through Telegram. These fraudulent schemes offer non-existent investment opportunities, promising very attractive and risk-free returns within a short span of time. They commonly offer unrealistic returns of as high as 1,000% within 24 hours or even within a few hours.
