The Syrian Civil War

The Syrian Civil War began in 2011 and has led to one of the worst humanitarian crises of the 21st century. The conflict has drawn in global powers and led to the displacement of millions of people.

The conflict has been devastating for the people of Syria, resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths and millions more displaced. The conflict has also had far-reaching regional implications, with Iran and Russia supporting the Assad regime while Turkey, Saudi Arabia and other countries have backed rebel forces. In addition, the Islamic State group has taken advantage of the chaos to establish a foothold in the region.

The conflict has also spilled over into neighboring countries, such as Lebanon and Jordan, creating further instability. The war has been grinding on for nearly a decade now with no end in sight and its effects will be felt across the region for years to come. International efforts at political solutions have so far failed to bring an end to this devastating civil war.
