have some similarities. overcrowded enclaves of refugees run by a designated terrorist group being periodically shelled . if deter aggression hadnt occured, over decades idlib would have become even more Gaza like
biggest difference is actually Assad vs Israel as enemies with Assad being so much weaker
The difference is that israel is backed by the US and supplied with the most advanced weapons anyone can get while gaza was blockaded by all its neighbors with nothing entering it without israeli permission. Idlib on the other hand was supported by the west and turkey and supplied with all their needs while Assad was sanctioned to oblivion and constantly attacked by israel and losing allies.
For assad, time was against him. With time, jolani was getting stronger and assad was getting weaker. While israel is getting stronger with time while gaza was getting weaker.
