Global response to the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad and the capture of Damascus in Syria’s ongoing conflict


Syrian opposition fighters have declared victory in their fight against President Bashar al-Assad’s regime after he reportedly fled the capital city of Damascus. The country is said to have been “liberated” after 13 years of brutal war, marking the end of the al-Assad family’s rule. Joyous celebrations have erupted in Damascus and across the country, with many displaced Syrians returning home.

International reactions to the news have been mixed. US President Joe Biden is closely monitoring the situation, while UN envoy Geir Pedersen emphasizes the importance of finding a political solution and healing the wounds of the conflict. Former US President Donald Trump claims al-Assad fled due to losing Russian backing.

Leaders from the UAE, Israel, Yemen, Italy, and the Philippines have also commented on the developments. UAE’s Anwar Gargash warns against allowing non-state actors to exploit political vacuums, while Israel’s Amichai Chikli is cautious about the opposition’s advances. Yemen’s Information Minister praises the resilience of the Yemeni people and alleges Iran’s plans have failed in Syria and Lebanon.

Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani is closely monitoring the situation, calling for an emergency meeting, and the Philippines urges all parties to exercise restraint to avoid further violence. The future of Syria remains uncertain as the country enters a new chapter post-al-Assad rule.
