🇸🇾🇸🇾 —
The Military Recruitment Administration (affiliated with HTS) has announced the opening of enrollment for training and membership in the faction.➡️This comes despite a
statement earlier today by HTS leader and de facto Syrian president Abu Mohammad al-Golani, who declared that all factions would be dissolved and that weapons would be centralized under state control. However, HTS appears to be continuing its expansion and consolidation of power.
📝My opinion: It seems Golani might be modeling HTS after Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which played a crucial role in consolidating power after the Iranian Revolution. This approach contrasts with the first Iranian revolution, which ultimately failed.
