-At least 85,000 displaced individuals from Aleppo and environs have reached North and East Syria (NES), as the DAANES estimates that IDP numbers will soon reach 120,000
–IDPs arriving in Tabqa tell of verbal abuse, property theft, kidnapping, physical violence from the SNA while on the road out of Shehba, with many travelling for days on foot.
–Thousands sleeping outside in freezing conditions, multiple deaths reported, urgent need for shelter and other humanitarian relief.
“The situation is terrible, the people are all outside, it’s freezing. You can’t imagine what these people are going through. The people are all in the street, mostly without a house. Supplies have come, but the numbers of people are such that things don’t reach everyone, such as a blanket to sleep with at night.” – Nuda, Afrin IDP
—Meanwhile, many families from Shehba have been unable to reach safety, with numerous reports of SNA attacks on civilians seeking to flee. A convoy of 50 buses that set out from NES to collect IDPs from Shehba was blocked on the road by the SNA. Souad Hasso, from the Syrian Yazidi Union, told RIC that concern was mounting for the 450 Yazidi families who lived in Shehba prior to the SNA’s ongoing attack, particularly given the SNA’s track record of atrocities against Yazidis:
-Grave risk of imminent Turkish-backed assault against DAANES-governed Manbij, with multi-ethnic population of c.300K, creating further destabilization.
-Aleppo city’s Kurdish neighbourhoods, Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafiyeh, remain calm with no fighting reported today, while still encircled by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham.

Kurdish Forces Occupy Deir Ezzor Under Deal With Syrian Army (Videos)
South Front (https://southfront.press/kurdish-forces-enter-deir-ezzor-under-deal-with-syrian-army-videos/) The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), entered on December 6 government-held areas in the eastern Syrian governorate of Deir Ezzor under a deal with the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) to ‘prevent ISIS expansion’ as militants led by al-Qaeda-affiliated Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) continued to advance in the north and center of the country.
SDF has seized the west bank of the Euphrates to prevent an ISIS takeover. Deir ez-zor, Mayadin and Al-Bukamal (all west of the Euphrates) are now under SDF control:

Have you ever locked eyes with a wild fox or felt the silent gaze of a bear in the woods? This immersive post blends prose, poetry, and personal reflections to explore humanity’s connection with the wild. From tigers in Bandhavgarh to the gentle majesty of elephants, let’s journey through the untamed and rediscover the wild in us.
The Whispering Wilderness
You stand at the edge of the forest, your breath visible in the crisp air. The silence feels alive, vibrating with hidden stories. You wonder: Do you ever see wild animals? The thought dances in your mind like fireflies in twilight.
The forest does not answer in words. Instead, it speaks through the rustle of leaves, the distant hoot of an owl, and the almost imperceptible sound of something moving — or perhaps it’s your imagination. But you wait. You must wait. Because the wild, like poetry, cannot be rushed.
“Do you see them?” The voice within you asks. And then, just as your patience begins to wane, a fox steps out from behind a bush, its amber eyes locking with yours for a heartbeat before it vanishes.
Echoes of the Past
In the highlands of Scotland, a boy once ran barefoot through the heather, chasing shadows he thought were deer. His name was Callum, and he believed the wild spoke only to those who dared to listen. One evening, as the sun bled into the horizon, Callum saw a stag standing atop a hill, its antlers like a crown carved from ancient wood.
From December 30th, 2024 to January 2nd, 2025, a cultural festival will be held in the caracol located in the community of Oventik, municipality of San Andres, in the Highlands of Chiapas.
the Street Brigade are closely linked to the horizontal Zapatista way of organising
The Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) reported in a communiqué that the first session of the International Encounters of Rebellion and Resistance 2024-2025 will begin on December 28th and 29th with conferences at the CIDECI-Unitierra facilities, located in San Cristobal de Las Casas.
“We have chosen the venues thinking about which places would be safer for your transfer and stay,” explained insurgent sub-commander Moises.
He specified that the call is directed “to all the people, groups, collectives, organizations, movements and indigenous peoples who have signed the so-called Declaration for Life”; and that “municipal, state and federal officials of any level will not be allowed to enter”
A later communiqué provided more information on the topics that will be addressed.
Clashes between the SDF and the SNA took place west of the Euphrates on the night of December 4 to Thursday, December 5. Several sources speak of advances and territorial gains for the SDF.
The area lies south of the Minbic region. In recent days, both Turkish media and the SNA have announced their intention to advance on Minbic. The first attempts were successfully repelled in the last few days.
In addition to Minbic, the symbolic town of Kobane, which is close to the border, could also be in Turkey’s sights.
No one will leave the field without a fight
It is not only in the Euphrates region that the Turkish state attacks the Self-Administration on a daily basis. On December 4, an Arab youth, Ebdullah Elî El Ehmed, and a Kurdish youth, Enas Temam Mihemed, were killed in a drone strike in the small town of Dêrik in the east of the Self-Administration.
