You heard it here first: Bashar Assad might be dead
Flight path of a plane that took off from Damascus shorty after news broke that Assad left the city towards unknown destination, which might have been Latakia on Syrian coast which is still under SAA control as of now. Terrain in place where flightradar stopped tracking that plane isn't especially suited for emergency landing
clarification: there's some chance that Assad went out of Damascus before on other, private jet, so it's not sure and it's all conjecture on unproven information
update 2: there's a claim by Russian media that Assad is in Moscow, so he would have to flee on some earlier plane, but no photos as of now. Still, looked mildly credible at the time
best wishes to the Syrian people + a MODERN INNOVATIVE (SOLAR POWERED?) RESTART of the country (but without the oil, that is in the north and under US (!) and Kurdish control) so they will rely on their willpower to rebuild this broken country and NOT descend into another Sharia radical Islamic state, thanks
make it something that tourists want to visit :D
MANY Syriens are still abroad, will they return now? we don't know X-D (they definitely want to return from Lebanon)
