This area was captured by the SDF during the brief power vacuum that arose when the regime withdrew after the fall of Aleppo in late November 2024.
The Syrian army has declared the area between Tabqa and Ma'dan a closed military zone (red, West Euphrates). Clashes have been reported in this area between the Syrian army on one side and the PKK & the former Assad regime on the other.
