Al Assad family in Russia: Asylum grants on humanitarian reasons!

A dramatic chapter in the history of Syria has opened up! The fallen President Bashar al-Assad and his family fled to Russia after they have received asylum there on "humanitarian reasons". Russian news agencies report that the family is now safe while the situation in Syria remains chaotic.

The news about al-Assad's arrival in Russia comes at a time when the Syrian capital Damascus was conquered by armed opposition fighters. These announced that the government had fallen in Al-Assad. The events have developed at a breathtaking pace - less than two weeks after a lightning -like advance of the opposition, which has fundamentally changed the balance of power in Syria.

The exact circumstances of al-Assad's flight are still unclear. According to reports, he could have been evacuated by an air force base in Latakia with a Russian military aircraft. Al Jazeera's correspondent Yulia Shapovalova reported from Moscow that the aircraft was withdrawn with the transponder. A truly film -ridge for the once powerful dictator!

President Joe Biden also commented on the turbulent developments and explained that he did not know exactly where al-Assad was, but there were rumors that he was in Moscow. Biden described the fall of the regime as a "fundamental act of justice" and a historical opportunity for the suffering Syrian people to shape a better future.

chaos in Damascus

Meanwhile, jubilation and chaos broke out in Damascus when the rebels announced that the city was "free". Human quantities stormed the magnificent home of the former president, which is now considered a symbol of the lost regime. Russian foreign policy has focused strongly on Syria in recent years, and despite the support for Al-Assad, the new developments seem to change the dynamics.

Russian news agencies report that the leaders of the Syrian opposition guaranteed the security of Russian military bases and diplomatic institutions in Syria. Despite the fact that Russia has actively interfered with the conflict, this has been done and supported Al-Assad with air strikes that have demanded many civilian victims. The turn in the war began in 2015 when Russian troops helped Al-Assad to regain control over Damascus.

After 13 years of the bloody war, which cost hundreds of thousands of life and made millions of refugees, this could mark the end of an era. The rule of the Al Assad family, which lasted over half a century, now seems to be crumbling.
