The Southern Operations Room, abbreviated as SOR, is a Syrian rebel coalition consisting of various Syrian opposition groups and defectors that initially operated in the southern provinces of Daraa, Suwayda and Quneitra, though they expanded to Damascus, and Rif Dimashq. The group withdrew from Damascus following HTS' arrival.
The Southern Operations Room publicly declared their formation on 6 December 2024, to coordinate the southern Syria offensive in the 2024 Syrian opposition offensives. The group originated in the Southern Front which previously fought against the Assad regime in an earlier phase of the war. The formation process for what would become the Southern Operations Room began in 2023, with advisers from the Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham-led Military Operations Command bringing together the leaders of around 25 opposition factions in southern Syria to coordinate planning for a future military operation.
The Southern Operations Room was the first rebel organization to capture Damascus during the Syrian civil war.
The Eighth Brigade, one of the constituent parts of the operations room, was dissolved as of 13 April 2025, following a standoff around the city of Busra al-Sham between itself and the Second Syrian transitional government. In a video statement released by the Eighth Brigade, the group's spokesman confirmed the decision to disband.
