“One Year After the Fall of Assad” is our first preview from Issue 3 of Heatwave Magazine. You can read it here: heatwavemag.info/online/oneye...
Today, the SDF and Rojava find themselves at a crossroads: “The future of Rojava is less clear than it was a year ago.. Neighboring states with imperialist ambitions are once again vying for control of a Syria that is primed for a war between Al-Qaeda in a three-piece suit and the SDF.”
These early agreements were scrapped in January, 2026 as the STG ramped up an offensive against the SDF, “The current sequence of events began in early January, when two historic Kurdish neighborhoods in Aleppo—Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafieh—were brutally attacked by the new army of the STG.”
The fall of Assad’s regime came as a welcome relief for many Syrians: “Syrians across the diaspora celebrated the collapse of the regime, convinced that whatever came next would have to be better.” Agreements were struck in early 2025 between the STG and the SDF to preserve DAANES autonomy.
It’s been one year since the Assad regime fell, prompting a sequence of events that culminated in a new government leading Damascus under Mohammed al-Jolani, an ex-militant in al-Qaeda's Syrian wing. Here, Têkoşîna Anarşîst evaluates the previous year and the existential threat facing Rojava today.

Colapso y Desvio’s analysis is much more than a cautionary tale of the winds that extinguish the fires of struggle; it is a resounding reminder that the true character of a revolt can be found in its mechanics, its targets, its composition, and its historical resonances.
The persistent characterization of the Chilean revolt as merely a “social explosion” ultimately produced a managerial project in which social structures can be endlessly reconstituted within the confines of capitalism and on the comfortable terrain of democracy.
