Diary of the Syrian Transition - April 17-June 14, 2025, Part 1

Just a few things have happened the past two months

*Sorry about the delays on posting anything. When I traveled to Syria in mid-April I lost track of posting and then got behind as I continued to travel on/off for 6+ weeks. I’ve been trying to catch-up since the past couple of weeks. Unfortunately, this post is so long that Substack won’t allow me to post anymore in this post. Otherwise, the editing function stops working. So I’ll make a part 2 to this post with the remaining content. Might still take me a little bit to finish going through everything, but most of the catch-up is already done so this post will be longer than the second part to this. But once I’m done with all of that, I’ll have the normal regular updates again. Sorry again for the delay/absence. Was hoping to have everything all in one post, but I guess two months worth of content is too much for a Substack post.
