Hidden high above Moscow, Syria’s former dictator Bashar al-Assad spends his exile in front of a screen.

Assad now lives quietly in a luxury tower in Moscow City — protected by Russia’s security services, surrounded by marble bathrooms and bodyguards, and reportedly addicted to online video games.

After his regime collapsed in December 2024, he fled to Moscow with his family. Under Vladimir Putin’s protection, he has vanished from public life.

Sources close to his former circle say he rarely leaves his apartments and spends long hours gaming online — his only escape from the isolation of exile.

Hamas leader Basem Naim to Sky News:

We thank President Trump and his personal efforts to interfere and to pressure Israel to bring an end to this massacre and slaughtering.

Hamas leader Basem Naim to Sky News:

We believe and we hope that President Trump will continue to interfere personally and to exercise the maximum pressure on Netanyahu to fulfil the obligation.

First, as according to the deal, and second, according to the international law as an occupying power, because I think without this, without this personal interference from President Trump, this will not happen.
