Reactions In Syria To Fall Of Assad Regime

DAMASCUS, SYRIA - DECEMBER 13: Syrians react with joy after the toppling of the Assad dynasty at a demonstration with revelers and Islamist rebels of the victorious Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), taking selfies with fighters, raising guns and waving flags, with the leaded-glass Sword of Damascus monument in the central square, on December 13, 2024 in Damascus, Syria. Rebel forces in Syria have captured the capital on Dec. 8 from longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad, who fled the country for Moscow. The fall of the Assad regime marks a new chapter for Syria, which has been mired in a multi-party civil war since 2011, sparked by the Arab Spring uprisings. (Photo by Scott Peterson/Getty Images)
