The Fall of Damascus

A year has passed since the fall of Bashar al-Assad's government on December 8, 2024. The day Damascus slipped from his grasp.

It took just eleven days. A lightning offensive by opposition forces led by Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, HTS, brought an end to more than fifty years of Assad family rule.

But the fall itself was only the final act of a much longer tragedy. Syria's collapse didn't happen overnight; it was born of deep fractures: economic, political, and profoundly human.
