Main article: Timeline of the Syrian civil war See also: Fall of the Assad regime, Fall of Damascus, and 2024 Syrian opposition offensives
The following is a timeline of the Syrian civil war from November 2024. Information about aggregated casualty counts is found in casualties of the Syrian civil war.
On 27 November 2024, a coalition of Syrian opposition groups called the Military Operations Command led by Islamist Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) launched a lightning offensive against pro-government Syrian Arab Army (SAA) forces in Aleppo, Idlib, Hama and Homs Governorates in Syria. This was followed by other rebel offensives from the Southern Front, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), and the Syrian Free Army. The government continued to get some backing from its allies Russia and Iran, including Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and Hezbollah, although these allies were entangled in their own conflicts in Ukraine (see Russian invasion of Ukraine) and Lebanon (see Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present), 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon and Iran–Israel conflict during the Syrian civil war).
In the Battle of Aleppo, 29 November to 2 December, HTS-led forces took Aleppo from the government. In the Southern Syria offensive, 29 November to December 2024, rebels organised in the Southern Operations Room, took most of Southern Syria. In the 2024 Hama offensive, 30 November to 5 December, rebels took Hama. In the Palmyra offensive, 6-7 December, US-backed rebels took Palmyra. The capital Damascus fell to rebels on 7-8 December. According to official state reports in Russian mass media and media footage, President Bashar al-Assad left Damascus by air to Moscow, where he was granted asylum, sealing the fall of his regime.
There was also fighting between the Turkish-backed rebel Syrian National Army (SNA) and the US-backed and Kurdish-led SDF in Northeastern Syria, in Operation Dawn of Freedom, 30 November to 12 December, as well as some skirmishes between all these groups and the Islamic State (ISIS) in the Northeast (especially in the Deir ez-Zor offensive, 17 November to 3 December).
