The fall of Assad: What's next for Syria?
Update: 2024-12-11
Description
This week, on the streets of Damascus, there were signs of an army in retreat – tanks abandoned and Syrian army uniforms scattered on the roads where soldiers had torn them off.
It reflected the speed at which rebel forces had taken over Syria, with Bashar al-Assad’s brutal reign finally coming to an end after 13 years of civil war.
As celebrations spread across the nation, the Syrian people face the task of rebuilding a country now in the hands of rebel groups.
Today, Middle East correspondent for The Economist Gregg Carlstrom on Syria’s path forward and the implications for an increasingly unstable region.
