Damascus Falls: Rebel Victory in Syria? A Look From the Ground
Damascus, a city steeped in history, now finds itself at the heart of a breaking story. Multiple reports from December 2024 suggest a dramatic shift in the Syrian conflict: rebel forces claim to have entered Damascus, asserting the city’s liberation and the flight of President Bashar al-Assad. From the BBC and DW News to independent sources like Source Global News and news.com.au, the narrative echoes – though with varying degrees of certainty. These videos paint a rapidly evolving picture, raising critical questions: Is this truly the end of Assad’s regime? What will the transition of power look like? And crucially, what is the reality on the ground for the civilians trapped in this tumultuous chapter of Syria’s history? This compilation aims to provide context and insights from various video perspectives, shedding light on the potential liberation of Damascus and its immediate aftermath.
Key Takeaways from the Front Lines
Rebel Forces in Damascus: Multiple sources report rebel forces entering Damascus, with some claiming the city’s liberation. This marks a significant escalation in the ongoing Syrian conflict.
Assad’s Alleged Flight: Several reports suggest that President Assad has fled Damascus, potentially to Russia, although this remains unconfirmed by official sources.
Saydnaya Prison Liberation?: news.com.au’s report highlights the liberation of prisoners from Saydnaya prison, known for its brutal conditions. This development raises crucial questions about accountability and the future of justice in a post-Assad Syria.

Conflicting Information and Uncertainty: While the overall narrative suggests a significant rebel advance, there’s a degree of uncertainty surrounding the details. The BBC uses cautious language ("amid reports"), while Source Global News acknowledges unconfirmed rumors regarding Assad’s whereabouts.
Focus on Human Impact: The news.com.au video highlighting Saydnaya prison brings the human cost of the conflict into stark focus. This underscores the need for further investigation into alleged human rights abuses.
Historical Context: While focused on recent events, Asem Saleh’s video from 2018 offers important context regarding the strategic significance of Ghouta and the role of the Tiger Forces, reminding us of the protracted nature of this conflict.
Whispers of Change: Analyzing the Shifting Sands
The sudden collapse of the Syrian military, as portrayed by some of these videos, raises questions about the internal dynamics of the regime and the effectiveness of international involvement. The reported liberation of Saydnaya prison will likely be a focal point of international attention, demanding scrutiny and investigation. If confirmed, Assad’s departure would mark a pivotal turning point in the Syrian civil war, leaving a power vacuum with uncertain consequences. The differing levels of certainty expressed in various reports underscore the challenges of reporting from conflict zones and the importance of cross-referencing information.

The Syrian general Suheil Al-Hassan, commander of the tiger forces became one of the iconic names in the war on terror in Syria.
From Hama to Aleppo then from Deir Ezzor to Idlib, Suheil Al-Hassan and his tiger forces succeeded where other Syrian generals repeatedly failed.
Now the tiger forces are on the road to Damascus.
The battle to liberate Ghouta may start anytime soon. We have to be prepared as usual for a flood of fake news by the eunuchs and harem
of the mainstream media.
Ghouta was the theater of one of the greatest hoaxes in modern history i.e. the Chemical attacks of 2013.
