VIDEO | Rebels Deface Hafez al-Assad’s Statue, Remove Bashar’s Portrait As Damascus Falls

Dramatic footage has surfaced showing Syrian rebels toppling a statue of Hafez al-Assad, former president and father of Bashar al-Assad, in Damascus’ Al Arnous Square. The video also captures individuals removing and striking down a portrait of Bashar al-Assad amid celebrations marking the capital’s fall to opposition forces. The rebels, led by Islamist factions, declared Damascus "liberated" after their lightning offensive forced Bashar al-Assad to flee. This marks the end of over five decades of Baath rule, with calls for citizens abroad to return to a "free Syria." Tensions continue to escalate as the regime’s collapse reshapes the nation’s political future.
