BREAKING: Syrian Rebels Enter Damascus, President Bashar Al-Assad Flees; Chaos at Damascus Airport
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has reportedly fled Damascus to an undisclosed location as rebel forces entered the capital, marking a dramatic turn in the country’s 13-year conflict.
The insurgents, fresh off their capture of the key city of Homs, declared Damascus "militarily fallen" amid reports of gunfire and explosions.
Chaos erupted at Damascus airport as it was evacuated, flights were suspended, and passengers scrambled to safety.
Rebels also liberated detainees from the notorious Saydnaya prison.
Assad’s regime appears to be crumbling as opposition fighters make swift advances across strategic regions, cutting off key routes and threatening his stronghold.

In a powerful statement at the UN, Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative, Maria Zabolotskaya, condemned Western countries for their "double standards" in addressing the global refugee crisis. Highlighting the devastating impact of the Gaza conflict, she criticized the reluctance of Western nations to provide sufficient humanitarian aid to refugees, particularly those fleeing from war-torn regions like Syria, Afghanistan, and Sudan. Zabolotskaya also pointed out the hypocrisy in Western countries voicing concern over Ukrainian refugees while ignoring the plight of those seeking asylum in Russia. She called out the EU's failure to provide adequate support to refugees, especially those crossing the Mediterranean, and the deadly consequences of this inaction. With lives at stake and no accountability, the international community must confront the moral and legal crisis unfolding before our eyes.

Deadly violence erupted in Jaramana, a Druze and Christian-majority suburb near Damascus, after a leaked audio recording allegedly insulting Islamic religious figures triggered outrage. On April 28, reports say Islamist HTS forces stormed the area, leading to intense gunfire and shelling that lasted around 30 minutes. At least four Druze fighters were killed, with unverified reports suggesting dozens injured or over 20 dead. The incident highlights rising sectarian tensions under HTS rule in Syria, as the region remains on edge following similar clashes in March.
