UAV event in Syrian Arab Republic on Tue 27th January 2026

Update – Damascus factions launched an attack on the village of Baqila south of Chal Agha using seven suicide drones, in a dangerous move reflecting the continued escalation by these factions. This attack coincides with mobilizations and assaults by the same factions on the villages of Al-Qasmiya and Zarkotek west of Kobani, in addition to shelling targeting the vicinity of the village of Al-Safa south of Chal Agha, reflecting a sustained military escalation across multiple fronts. These attacks constitute a new and blatant breach of the ceasefire and a direct violation of existing agreements, raising tensions and compelling our forces to exercise their right to defend their fighters and their people.
