Summary
Ousted Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad claimed he was forcibly evacuated to Russia by Moscow, denying he planned to step down or seek refuge.
Assad emphasized his intent to continue fighting Syria’s civil war, despite Russia granting him asylum after rebels overthrew his government.
The Kremlin stated Assad resigned to ensure a peaceful power transfer, but Assad contradicted this. Rebels now control most of Syria, creating a security vacuum.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Embassy urged American citizens to leave Syria, citing ongoing violence and instability, with no consular services available.
Wow. He might wanna stay away from high windows for the next little bit?
Just the other day he was next to one such window and he couldn’t get away fast enough. Kept running away scared down the side of the building like the devil was running behind him. I would say he was gunning it close to 9.8 meters per second squared but I’m a little rusty.
