A recent statement from a US official suggests that the ongoing events in Syria are signaling the collapse of Iran's influence across the Middle East. The potential fall of the Iran-backed Assad regime would come after significant setbacks for Tehran's proxies, including Hezbollah and Hamas, in conflicts with Israel over the past 14 months.
US President Joe Biden is reportedly closely monitoring the developments in Syria. A statement from the National Security Council spokesperson, Sean Savett, indicated that President Biden and his team are actively following the extraordinary events in Syria and maintaining constant communication with regional partners.
