In a dramatic turn of events, the Syrian opposition flag was raised at the Syrian Embassy in Moscow on Monday, marking a symbolic blow to Bashar al-Assad's rule.
A group of men, standing on the embassy balcony, proudly raised the green, red, black, and white flag while singing and clapping, as snow fell around them.
This momentous act came just hours after reports confirmed that Assad, along with his family, had fled Syria and sought asylum in Moscow following the collapse of his regime.
Russian authorities, including police officers, were seen at the embassy's entrance as the flag was hoisted, signaling a significant shift in Syria's political landscape.
A representative from the Syrian embassy confirmed that operations were continuing under the new flag.
Meanwhile, a Kremlin source revealed that Assad’s arrival in Moscow occurred on Sunday, following a lightning offensive by rebel forces that led to the fall of Damascus and the end of the 13-year civil war.
