Iranian-Backed Palestinian Factions Leave Syria, Surrender Weapons

Under pressure from Damascus to improve its regional and international relations, Syria has witnessed the departure of several Iranian-backed Palestinian factions. These groups, including the prominent Jihad movement and Popular Front, have surrendered their weapons, marking a significant development in the region. Footage from Yarmouk camp, a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Damascus, shows the daily life of residents amidst these changes. "This is a decisive step," explains an unnamed expert in the video, "reflecting the Syrian government's efforts to normalize relations." Another expert added, "The US has also set conditions for the Syrian government, including the expulsion of these factions and the cessation of their activities." This move signals a potential shift in the regional balance of power and raises questions about the future of Palestinian factions in Syria.
