flag A Syrian militiaman’s video of a severed braid sparks global outrage amid escalating tensions in northeastern Syria.

flag A video showing a Syrian militiaman displaying a severed braid claimed to be from a Kurdish woman has sparked international outrage as Damascus advances control over northeastern Syria. flag The man, linked to government forces, said he took the braid from a female fighter during fighting in Raqqa, though he later claimed it was fake. flag The incident intensified tensions amid a fragile U.S.-brokered ceasefire, as Syria pushes for integration of Kurdish-led SDF fighters, which the SDF sees as a threat to its autonomy. flag Security concerns grew after ISIS prisoners escaped during a transfer of detention sites, prompting the U.S. to accelerate moving detainees to Iraq. flag Human rights groups are calling for investigations, warning of potential war crimes and dehumanizing tactics.
