On Sunday morning, the rebels announced that they had gained control of Damascus and plunged Assad's regime. Eyewitnesses reported violent fights, loud explosions and the withdrawal of soldiers from the presidential guard from the city. The offensive began at night, and the rebels announced that Assad wanted to free the country peacefully. This is followed by a phase of increased violence in the civil war, which began in 2011, and a renewed flare of the fights at the end of November.

The rebellion, which is represented by the Haiat Tahrir al-Scham (HTS) alliance, explained the day as the "end of this dark era" of oppression, which lasted over five decades. In the meantime, the Syrian Prime Minister Mohammed al-Jalali reported that he had stayed in the country and wanted to cooperate in the event of a possible change of power. Like Today notes, the future of Syria is on the brink and the worldwide attention is focused on the developments.
