    How did this happen so suddenly? Did the Syrian army just desert their posts or they didn't have equipment or what?

        Sure but I'd expect them to put up a fight, this almost looks like it was prearranged.

          They did put up a fight. They’ve been depleted over a 10+ year long civil war. War fatigue set in long ago, and supplies and fresh recruits started drying up a long long time ago.

      Although the terrorists had a lot of help, the way the Syrian army crumbled is very suspicious. Or maybe they just were unprepared.
