Syria is entering a new era after more than 13 years of civil war.

Opposition groups entered Damascus after Homs.

While the Syrian Army Command informed its officers that the Assad regime has fallen, it was announced that Assad and his family went to Moscow.

According to a Kremlin source, Russia granted asylum to Assad and his family members.

On the other hand, Syrian Prime Minister Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali said that Syria is ready to cooperate with any government elected by the people.

The 61-year Baathist regime in Syria has collapsed.

The Assad era ended as the opposition entered the capital Damascus.

Hours after the opposition declared that they had captured the capital, the streets of Damascus were filled with celebrating Syrians.

The fall of the regime freed all prisoners in jails and Syrians who had fled to Lebanon during the civil war took to the roads to return home.

Syrian Prime Minister Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali said Syria is ready to cooperate with any government elected by the people.

Speaking to TRT News, Abdurrahman Mustafa, the head of the Syrian Interim Government, described the process as “a new birth for Syria” and emphasized that they will fight for the construction of a new Syria without ethnic and religious discrimination.

Syria’s deposed President Bashar al-Assad, and his family on Sunday arrived in Moscow, where Russia offered them asylum, Russian state news agency reported.

“Assad and his family members arrived in Moscow. Being guided by humanitarian considerations, Russia has granted asylum for them,” TASS said, citing a Kremlin source.

“Russia has always spoken in favor of a political settlement of the Syrian crisis. We insist that the UN-mediated talks be resumed,” the source told the news agency.

“Russian officials are in touch with representatives of armed Syrian opposition, whose leaders have guaranteed security of Russian military bases and diplomatic missions on the Syrian territory,” the source added.
