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.

Russia BLASTS West for Refugee Crisis: ‘Double Standards’ and Callous Neglect of Dying Innocents

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. #RefugeeCrisis #Gaza #DoubleStandards #UN #HumanitarianCrisis #RussiaUN #MariaZabolotskaya #WesternHypocrisy #Refugees #InternationalLaw #GlobalPolitics #MediterraneanCrisis #Syria #Afghanistan #UkraineRefugees #SaveTheRefugees ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.102~GR.124~
