Rebel fighters in Syria have set fire to the grave of President Bashar al-Assad’s father and former president Hafez al-Assad. This tomb was located in Kardaha, Latakia, in the northwestern region of Syria. Kardaha is the ancestral village of the Asad family.
Hafez, Bashar’s father, served as president of Syria from 1971 to 2000. Hafiz massacred thousands of people in Hama in 1982. Hafiz died of a heart attack in 2000 after serving as president of Syria for 29 years . After Hafiz’s death, his youngest son Bashar became the country’s new president.
In Syria, on December 8, rebels captured the capital Damascus. For this reason, President Bashar left the country and took refuge in Russia. With Bashar’s departure from the country, the Assad family’s 54-year rule over Syria came to an end.
Acting Prime Minister said – Guarantee of religious rights to all
Acting Prime Minister Bashir said in an interview with an Italian newspaper that religious rights would be guaranteed to all people in the country. Bashir also called on Syrian citizens living abroad to return to the country.
Bashir said Syria is now a free country that has regained its prestige and glory. Citizens should return to the country.
Bashar al-Assad had announced that he would peacefully hand over power to the rebels after leaving the country. Rebel group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) named Mohammed al-Bashir as Syria’s interim prime minister after seizing power. Bashir was previously governor of Syria’s Idlib province.

Israel has so far attacked more than 350 targets in Syria. According to Al Jazeera, the Israeli military said the attack was aimed at preventing Syrian weapons from falling into the hands of rebel groups. The military estimates that 70 to 80 percent of Syria’s weapons have been destroyed.
This operation was named “Bashan Arrow”. The Israeli military said it attacked a Syrian naval fleet on Monday evening and destroyed 15 ships in an attack on the port of al-Bayda-Latakia.
