Syrian rebels start forming transitional government after Assad's ousting

Syrian rebels have begun forming a transitional government following the ousting of President Bashar al-Assad. The move comes after opposition groups took control of Damascus, ending a 13-year civil war. The former prime minister has agreed to transfer power to the rebel-led Salvation Government. Rebel commander Abu Mohammed al-Golani met with Assad's officials to discuss the transition. The new authority will be led by Mohamed al-Bashir. Meanwhile, banks in Syria are set to reopen, signaling a potential return to order. Al-Golani has promised accountability for those involved in war crimes during the conflict. The situation remains uncertain, as the rebel alliance has not outlined a clear plan for Syria's future governance.
