Sources in Homs are already saying that the city is essentially empty of regime forces now and they are preparing for the rebel takeover.

Wtf? Can't be true, is Assad planning a final stand at Damascus and will rely on Iran to save his ass? Homs falls and Assad is cut off from Russia's Syrian bases. Assad is looking scared to consolidate all his forces into Damascus.
News channel related to the rebel forces are reporting that the SAA has left the city of Salamiyah and the city is currently controlled by residents who are now in close contact with rebel forces to hand over control.

Salamiyah is full of Ismailis, which should be ideologically opposed to HTS and yet...
This feels like a complete rejection of Assad's regime.
Rebels are in Talbiseh, with Hama and Salamiyah they have two routes into Homs.
How long until Russia abandons Assad? They have bases still manned and firing at HTS.
This is a complete disaster for Assad and Russia if this continues at this rate.
