A senior delegation from the Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (ANNES), including SDF chief Mazloum Abdi, arrived in Damascus this morning, October 7th, to meet with Syrian Interim President Ahmed al-Shaara amid escalating tensions. US Special Envoy for Syria Tom Barrack is also attending the meeting, according to Rudaw English. The ANNES delegation's arrival and the high-level talks follow an incident in Aleppo where residential neighborhoods were targeted by a bombing attributed to the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on the morning of October 7th. This development was reported in a previous report, which also noted that Aleppo Governor Azzam Al-Gharib visited hospitals to observe the aftermath and emphasized civilian safety. During a live broadcast this morning, Syrian TV cameras inadvertently captured a background voice that contradicted the official narrative regarding the Aleppo incident. The voice stated, "we’re telling them that the SDF forces are provoking the security and the army," directly challenging claims that the army was provoking the SDF, as reported by SallyObeid on X. This unscripted moment suggests a pre-scripted scenario intended to mislead the audience, with complicit media outlets simultaneously pushing a conflicting narrative. The exact timing of the accidental capture during the broadcast was not specified, but it occurred within the reporting window of October 7th, 2025, between 8:35 AM and 9:35 AM UTC. Previous reporting indicated that Jolani and CENTCOM officials were also part of the ANNES delegation, and that service, medical, and security agencies had been placed on high alert following the Aleppo incident. The extent of injuries and specific residential areas targeted in Aleppo were not detailed in earlier reports.
