Kurdish nationals are demonstrating in Warsaw, Poland, on January 18, 2026, protesting the Syrian military's takeover of Kurdish-held territory in northeastern Syria. Syrian government forces, aided by tribal militias, are seizing control of wide swathes of land, including the city of Raqqa and key oil fields, forcing the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces to retreat. The rapid military advance is displacing the SDF from areas it has controlled for more than a decade following its role in defeating ISIS.
