Syrian Rebels Capture Damascus’ Mezzeh AirBase as Reports of Assad’s Death Flood Social Media
Syrian rebels have captured the Mezzeh Military Air Base in Damascus, a significant blow to Bashar al-Assad’s regime.
The base, once instrumental in launching rocket and air raids against opposition forces, now lies under rebel control.
As celebrations erupt across Damascus, social media is flooded with unverified claims of Assad's death or escape, fueling speculation about the regime's fate.
The rebels' swift offensive has effectively ended five decades of Baathist rule in Syria, with Damascus declared "liberated." The situation marks a historic turning point in Syria's ongoing conflict.

Violence broke out in the southern Damascus suburb of Jaramana after a controversial audio clip allegedly insulting Prophet Muhammad went viral. The clip, falsely attributed to Druze cleric Marwan Kiwan, triggered deadly clashes between Druze gunmen and government forces. Kiwan denied the message, and Syria’s Interior Ministry confirmed he wasn’t responsible. At least 10 people were killed, with activist groups reporting higher tolls. As religious leaders call for calm and Israel monitors the situation, tensions remain high in one of Syria's most volatile suburbs.

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.

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.

Kremlin confirmed ongoing U.S.-Russia talks on Ukraine peace, despite Donald Trump's frustration with Vladimir Putin. Trump, angered by Putin's criticism of Ukraine's leader, warned of imposing secondary tariffs on Russian oil. Meanwhile, Russia expressed interest in rare earth projects with the U.S. The possibility of a Trump-Putin call remains open, as Trump insists on an end to the war, while global markets brace for potential impacts of the threatened sanctions.
