Sarin nerve gas victims tell Sky News that Assad should be punished for deadly attack
Thursday, 12 December 2024 () Victims of one of Bashar al Assad's worst atrocities are demanding he's hauled back from Moscow and put on trial for gassing more than 1,400 of their relatives.
Moscow has entered high-stakes negotiations with Syrian rebel forces to protect its strategic military bases in Tartus and Khmeimim following the dramatic collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s government. With Assad seeking refuge in Moscow and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) rebels tightening their grip on Syria, Russian officials are racing to secure agreements ensuring the safety of their bases. While the rebels have taken control of surrounding provinces, Russian compounds remain operational under temporary guarantees. This precarious arrangement marks a critical moment for Russia’s military foothold in the region amid the volatile power shift.

Ed Miliband said he does not regret blocking UK intervention in Syria when he was Labour leader after Wes Streeting suggested the UK’s “hesitation” allowed the Assad regime to last for longer. The two senior Cabinet ministers have expressed differing views on the Commons vote on the principle of UK military action in Syria in 2013. The Energy Secretary, who instructed his party to vote against it when he was opposition leader, said he stood by the decision with hindsight. Report by Covellm.

In a bold move, Russian politician Dmitry Kuznetsov proposes that exiled Syrian leader Bashar Assad contribute to the reconstruction of Mariupol, a city devastated by the ongoing war in Ukraine. This comes as part of a plan to potentially grant Assad Russian citizenship in recognition of his efforts. With Assad now seeking refuge in Russia after being overthrown, this proposal raises questions about his future role in Russia’s strategic goals and the broader rebuilding efforts in war-torn regions. Watch as we explore this surprising development and its implications for both Russia and Syria.
