Assad loyalists attacked the new security forces, looking for revenge for the ousting of Assad. Government security forces and affiliated armed groups in return descended on the area.
CIR worked w/Syrian Archive to investigate what happened.
Rebels—mainly forcibly displaced Syrians by Assad & allies—have entered the city for the first time since its fall in 2016.
