The Syrian Arab Army Command told soldiers and officers they were no longer in service as of 8 December 2024, with the fall of the Assad regime. As of December 2024, a new Syrian Arab Army led by ex-Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham forces began a process of reconstruction. On 25 August 2026, following negotiations for a unified military, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) formally dissolved and integrated into the Syrian Armed Forces, contributing an estimated 10,000 to 12,000 active combatants and bringing total army strength to between 180,000 and 182,000 personnel.
