Assad flees to Russia: Israel uses the chaos for air strikes!

The deposed Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad apparently secured his escape by revealing crucial military secrets to Israel. After 24 years in power, Assad was toppled in a rapid rebel offensive on December 8 and secretly fled on a private jet to Russia, where he was granted asylum. Surprising information from the Turkish newspaper Hurriyet says that Assad informed his arch-enemy Israel about the locations of Syrian weapons depots, which enabled Israeli forces to carry out lightning-fast airstrikes oe24 reported.

Israel carries out massive bombings

As Syrians celebrate the overthrow of one of the most brutal dictators of modern times, Israel responded with unprecedented airstrikes - an estimated 480 strikes in just 48 hours. Israeli troops advanced into Syrian territory to capture land that previously served as a buffer zone. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that he would change the situation in the Middle East. These military actions, planned in response to the uncertainties following Assad's overthrow, have sparked international recriminations, including a statement released Friday by Qatar's foreign ministry that called Israel's actions a "dangerous development" that violates Syria's sovereignty, it said ABC.

As Assad settles in Moscow, the transition of power in Syria also brings a profound shift in regional dynamics. Israel recognizes the opportunity to attack military facilities that could pose potential threats, while Iran, a key supporter of Hezbollah, is significantly weakened by Assad's loss of influence in the region. The Assads are starting a new life in exile, but conflicts in the region appear to be intensifying.
