Who Are Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, Rebels Seizing Syria's Second City, Aleppo?

Rebels opposed to President Bashar al-Assad claimed control over Aleppo on November 29, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a group formed in 2011 as an Al Qaeda affiliate. Armed fighters tore down Assad’s posters as Syrian authorities closed Aleppo’s airport and roads. Russia pledged military aid within 72 hours, while the Syrian army withdrew from rebel-held areas. Syria's civil war began in 2011 during the Arab Spring and evolved into a fragmented conflict involving jihadist groups like IS and Al Qaeda. The war has killed 500,000, displaced 7 million, and left rebels confined to northern Syria under Turkish protection.
