Syrian rebels have captured the Mezzeh Military Air Base in Damascus, a significant blow to Bashar al-Assad’s regime.
The base, once instrumental in launching rocket and air raids against opposition forces, now lies under rebel control.
As celebrations erupt across Damascus, social media is flooded with unverified claims of Assad's death or escape, fueling speculation about the regime's fate.

The Syrian city of Deir al-Zawr has fallen under the control of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) militants, marking the third major city to slip from government hands in a week. This dramatic shift follows a series of swift and coordinated HTS offensives, compounded by the withdrawal of U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). Simultaneously, Israel has launched an unprecedented military blitz across Syria, targeting 480 strategic sites within 48 hours, including airports, air bases, and suspected chemical weapons facilities. The dual assault has left the Syrian regime’s military infrastructure severely weakened, raising concerns about regional stability and the broader implications of escalating international involvement.

In a dramatic turn of events, Russian President Vladimir Putin has granted asylum to Bashar al-Assad, the ousted Syrian leader, following a rapid rebel offensive that toppled his regime. Assad and his family fled Damascus as Islamist-led forces, primarily Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), seized control of the capital, ending over five decades of Baath Party rule.
Speculation over Assad’s whereabouts escalated after his plane mysteriously vanished from flight trackers, with reports suggesting it switched off its transponder to evade detection. The Syrian Air jet reappeared in Moscow, where Putin extended humanitarian asylum, signaling a significant geopolitical shift.
