Syrian government forces are fortifying streets and buildings surrounding Kurdish neighborhoods in Aleppo, specifically Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafiyeh, while Turkey has conducted two airstrikes near the Tishreen Dam, indicating a coordinated effort to potentially attack the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Rojava. These actions contrast with reassurances from supreme leader Jolani regarding unification through peaceful means, according to reports citing airstrikes at 03:23 AM this morning and four days prior on August 25th on the Syriatel tower and hill, a strategic location for control over the Tishreen Dam area west of the Euphrates. US envoy Tom Barrack is reportedly leading mediation and unification talks, restricting external interference and centralizing the process. The SDF is taking precautionary measures amid escalating tensions. Reports suggest that if tensions escalate, Barrack will be held responsible for any resulting disaster, with a warning that current military operations could spiral into a regional conflict involving other actors, a miscalculation likened to their Suweida-Military campaign against the Druze minority. Separately, Arab sources reported an Israeli force penetrating the village of Al-Ash in the Quneitra countryside. In Hama, President Ahmed Al-Shara laid the foundation stone for the Victory Park and Bolivard project. Al-Shara also recalled a past instance where he sent a message to Iraqi Prime Minister Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani to prevent Iraqi factions from entering Syria during a period of pressure on Al-Sudani to intervene in Syria, fearing a wrong position from Iraq's parliament. President Ahmed Al-Sharaa also stated that he will hear the "strangest chants" from his people.
