Assad flees to Moscow as rebels seize control of Damascus, ending 50 years of family rule
Bashar Assad, the ousted Syrian leader, has fled to Moscow after rebels seized control of Damascus, ending his family's 50-year rule. This marks a significant shift in Syria's political landscape, with celebrations erupting among the populace. Rebel forces, led by Abu Mohammed al-Golani, have taken over the capital, raising questions about Syria's future governance. Al-Golani has distanced himself from his past ties to al-Qaida, presenting himself as a leader for change. In South Korea, President Yoon Suk Yeol faces a potential travel ban amid investigations into his recent martial law declaration. This has led to political turmoil and opposition parties are preparing to submit new impeachment motions against him.
