Supporters of Syrian rebels raise flag at embassy in Athens, police intervene

Supporters of Syrian rebels entered the Syrian embassy in Athens on Sunday, raising the rebel flag on the rooftop. Police intervened, detaining four individuals but allowing the flag to remain. This incident follows the rebels' declaration of President Bashar al-Assad's ouster after they took control of Damascus, ending his family's long rule. Celebrations occurred outside the embassy, with some reports indicating that protesters removed Assad's portrait, though this has not been confirmed by police.
