🇸🇾⚡️- BREAKING: Hayat Tahrir al-Sham claims to have shot down the IL-76 reportedly carrying Bashar Al Assad!

🇸🇾⚡️- 53 years of Assad Dynastic rule has officially ended today on December 7th, 2024

After 13 years of the most brutal and complicated civil war of the 21st century, the future of the country is uncertain, as loose anti-Assad coalition members will now have to determine how to move the state forward.

The issue of the Israeli occupation of the Golan Heights as well as Kurdish territorial claims will now come to a head. Turkish and Russian interests are also going to be considerable.

The incoming Trump Administration and NATO will have to formulate a strategy to prevent the new Syria from becoming a hotbed for terrorism as ISIS, Al Qaeda, Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, and other groups now see the opportunity in the fallen country to return to power.

🇸🇾⚡️- Axios has begun reporting on the shootdown of the IL-76 allegedly carrying Assad.

It is still not known if Assad was even on board the plane, however it has not been confirmed nor denied.

🇮🇱🇸🇾⚡️- Israel War Room gloats that the IL-76 allegedly carrying Assad has been shot down.
