a just so that this mode that unites us then divides us the last night and then in syria, off the opposition forces. tofu, president, bus, all off god, ending his 24 year. the money employee, this voucher is there a night from toe hall or so. coming up asset and his family and now the russian capital must go where they've been grown to the side of us. president hale's outside skull calling it an act of justice and a historical opportunity for the syrians to build a best of each other. we reveal will be in a humane condition, some serious, most notorious prison, where some of the detainees is still on the account. the

hello welcome to the program. we begin with the full of the asset regime and syria of to 24 years of special last labs rule. and 13 years off to the syrian revolution . opposition forces have taken control of the country side and his family. and now in moscow, where they've been granted assigned to, an overnight cuff use been imposed in damascus to salute against del coverage for new era, for syria. after more than 50 years of the essence, then we rule opposition fighters have taken control of the country. and the man behind it all the leader of height of the city, the sham. some of the shudder, also known as m, how much you need any emerged victorious would. while speaking out the historic

emma we most in the old city of damascus. he said, the real victory is for all syrians to die, syria is claims that rid itself of this vile regime. this victory was not at a low price. it is the result of the sacrifice of the full amount of this regime hasn't present thousands of its own citizens unjustly. and without any crime, we have the rightful owners of this land. and today we are rewarded with this victory on the streets of damascus celebrations. seen and heard across the capital along with the release of prisoners after years of detention under a said, they now walk free and people swarmed the presidential palace in west or damascus. an image that was only thinkable just a few days ago. after taking over se television opposition forces have this

message for the syrian people. the out of the city of damascus has been liberated the tyrant, the sharla side has been toppled. all the prisoners have been released from the prison of damascus. we wish that all are fighters and citizens preserve and maintain the property of the state of syria. long live syria, on sunday, serious prime minister address of the nation from his home, urging the opposition to ensure an orderly transition on number 3. and then we're extending our hands even to the opposition who are ready, reach out to us and gave us assurances they will not cause any harm to any citizen who belongs to the cereal of ours. despite the historic series of events, the world is now lift, wondering what's next for the syrian people come to send food and just

how much is there a soul said it is in damascus where he gains access to the presidential palace? we are at the presidential palace in damascus, where somebody has ruled over syria for becky. this is the political gate off the palace. so somebody has been receiving the ip guess the state dignitaries through this gate. and now this palace of the present, sad or for syria and leaving the country and going into moscow. and often the position 5 is taken over the capital. they have rushed into this palace and now it is fully under the control. i was just the, just in the protocol whole and seen the fight of still being here. now they do not want to be shown on the camera due to the security concerns. now you can see that there are see of the broken glasses over here that happen when they have stormed into the palace on 7th off, off of december. but on the other hand,

we see that there is probably measures in the mass cuz the security forces of the position is on everywhere. there are several check points and of course, the power to cause the electricity, the lights are turned off. and it's not just because of the lack of the resources, but they're seeing that as well as being some oscars or 4 of the capitals, damascus. and due to the security reasons they are keeping in the did the lights off. so this is the protocol whole. you can see that the rock car took over here. so for decades, the said the did start time a heavy and receiving their uh, the ip. yes we have. and the here you can see this is one of the menus actually have just seen it is, is from 2009 when the philippines president was the mass. cuz this is the menu for, for, for, for, for the dinner. well this is how this was happening, or 7th of december the, the, the leader of the issue. yes. level position that has taken over the control of the

mask is mohammed drum and it has risk to damascus. and that's, that was a historic moment. he directly went to may of most and you also delivered us the page and quoting on the cmc, and that is a historic moment and not only for syria, but for the whole region. indeed, when you are coming to the mass, because you're feeling that this is a storage woman, you've seen the syrians, i know living in a different reality. there is no pressure unless there is no opposite. i said there is no assad, somebody who has ruled over syria for 54 years, but the rather the position fights is coming from all across the country. this is said that i'll just go to damascus to, oh gosh, i was all outside of his family. and now in moscow you yes, ship of love that has moved from that on rushes, involvement, and assets maintenance asked to see when president bush on either side of the his

family members have arrived at most, asked the russian, somebody who's gone to the police to asylum assembled the allegedly inoculated biography playing on the russian base in the top here uh the sewer and a position as opposed to the guarantees the security a resolution basis in natasha and talk to as well as diploma technicians in the country. so while the opposition is series fully a traditional source, he rushes requested emergency consultations with the july security council and the situation see where we should take place. on monday, december, the 9th. at the original sources, consider it necessary to resume negotiations on assignments in syria under the when supervision. now, a slot has been removed from the sewer and embassy in moscow, and russia has the most old policies to manage, should peaceful transitional power. using political means, curious to see where it was. russia's tongue is aligned to release by charlotte, something else, but she didn't have a naval base to talk to. and patients name media laptops here in exchange for

breakfast. calypso and the ministry support. and that's the most piece. it's naval base and policies with trust. sorry, it's masters to africa, so time. not in central african republic, according to to the statements by the foreign ministry, the ministry personnel at diversity bases and see where our honda. but the reason that i see respect to the safety, there is no money at the base, is either you less of the, i'll just be wrapped. most of the united states has hail the full of president bush or law subs regime and cold for him to be held accountable. president joe biden says, washington will work with syrian groups to establish a transition, but want, if possible, risks ahead. long last shot or james fall. this regime brutalized and tortured and killed. literally hundreds of thousands of innocent series of fathers is a fundamental lack of justice. so it's

a moment of historic opportunity for long suffering people serious to build a better future for the proud country. it's also going to risk and served as we're all turn to the question of what comes next. united states will work with our partners and stakeholders in syria telling them sees an opportunity to manage the risk. meanwhile, american military forces have carried out as strikes on slumming state targets in syria. us central command says that hit thousands of ice targets including thompson operatives. general michael corolla, one that the country will continue its mission to defeat the group and stop it from taking advantage of the current situation. how did your castro has moved from washington dc? president joe biden, to address the situation from the white house, saying that this was a moment of both opportunity and risk in syria. he said that the us is at

harton, that opposition leaders are saying the right words at this moment promising a future government that is inclusive, that this perhaps even water it however, the us will be watching to see if those words turn into action and bite in saying that if this is a peaceful transfer of power led by the syrian people, eventually us could pledge humanitarian aid to rebuild the country. but of course, this is all taken with a grain of salt, because biden is leading office in just over a months time. an incoming president elect donald trump has said that he wants us to beat hands off of syria. but in the meantime, us secretary of state antony blankets promising that the us would stand in support of the searing people saying that they finally have a reason for hope. knew well, as we're hearing these words of encouragement, we're also seeing acts of military strength from the us. of course, there 900 us troops station in syria, and on the same day that aside sled,

the country, the us air force launched us a targeted air strikes against 75 targets linked to ice. so this is according to a statement from the us central command. these were iso camps and offered as was damage assessments underway. no reports of civilian casualties involved. and the timing of the strikes on the same day that aside felt cannot be more stark, with the message directly given as a warning to the new leaders potential leaders of syria. at coming as a statement from the sent commander sent com, commander michael carrillo saying, all organizations in syria should know that we the us will hold them accountable if they partner or support i. so in any way, maintaining my i so and containing its influence is a top priority for the us reporting from washington, heidi to castro, out to 0 during national loss,

as ruled tens of thousands of people who oppose the government in prisons. some forcibly disappeared at the and the torres said not at present in damascus money would taken on the ground cells known as the red wing. people have been figuring by flashlight in order to free inmates held on the ground. specialize teams from the white helmets organization have now arrived there in search of detainees might be held in hidden sellers. the ends of the scenes at the present is inmates allowed to be free. business emerged from over crowd themselves, some in shock of the use of imprisonment axles. they may have extra points. the they run is free man for the 1st time in years escaping the confines of serious prisoners the

across serious scenes of liberation as thousands emerge from detention centers leaving facilities that have been described as human slaughter houses address thoughts. becky, as long rule that many activists have called a kingdom of silence. they are among thousands of individuals arrested for opposing president assad during and since the 2011 uprising obviously was just the number i have been missing. my family thinks i'm dead. they don't know anything about me. there are many people who have been missing for many years. they were prisoners with me who were 60 and 70 years old. the mass release follows us with defense, that by opposition groups will cease control of government, strong holes, level, hama, and homes, ultimately capture and damascus. and the assaults rule for years, the un documented systematic torture and abuse in more than 100 detention centers

among them sitting by a prison. the most notorious then of i am this thing international says thousands were killed there in the mess hangings and secret executions survivors report overcrowded cells in widespread torture with pipes and electric shocks. many died from preventable medical conditions and their families never learned their face. i know he was up too much. we are in the middle of damascus. i swear to god our execution was supposed to be today. just half an hour ago. 54 of us were going to be excused today for kansas families who have waited years for use of their missing loved ones. their release brings both hope and anguish with the present gates finally open. see, right, we'll have to come to terms with some of the darkest secrets of their machines, brutality. and with the ones that may never hill axles i much out is there

are also good, was arrested for protesting. when he was 15 years old. he says he experienced brutality, trying to survive in presence of 3 years. under torture, i was forced to get a false confessions that was that i killed officers and have weapons and i spied through the us enough time to end these ram. but that's, you know, false confessions you've given it to you because you want to paint the stuff. however, when i met the judge for around 3 to 4 seconds, with my eyes blindfolded and my hands tied behind my back and not seeing the judge, he asked me, what's your name? how many have you killed? i said none, and he said leave the room and i was sentenced to execution. uh, luckily he, i was smuggled on a secure sion day because it had the most wonderful mother you could have her name in pursuing system doesn't exist. it's an intelligent services that run every corner of the country. there is no such thing as justice. if the judge doesn't like your hair color,

it gets sent and see the execution. you're talking about the system. when the machine has to give a 1000000 people, what women were raved and they give birth to children in so under the ground that the kids live for a few years without seeing the sun or the light or a tree or a bird. there is no such thing as just as when it comes to that to the regime of the show last night. so when i go, when they took me to the judge, i didn't expect anything else. i didn't expect him to hear my story. he gave me 34 seconds to say my name and say the word. no. and he didn't even care about that, because under my false confession, under torture, i was forced to say that i killed and list number of officers, even though it's time the boy so heads on the al jazeera, we'll look at them. i'm leading the opposition on his plans for the future of syria, [000:00:00;00] the

in depth analysis of the days headlines. what are we supposed to read into the game? so basically, you miss all by russian informed opinions. finally, after over a year of genocide, the i c. c. has come to this decision, critical debate. the difference between china and most of the rest of the world is a china plans long term inside story do conferences and meetings like cop $29.00 and others make a difference on how to 0 the colleges. when the

midst of how much is happening before the end of the question, why have limits like this? let denise this call your mind it's area of relief foundation the the you're watching out. is there a mind a thought helps, or is this our special i last that is in most go where he's been granted signed a serious president fled as opposition fights is to cover damascus and of a major cities and doing 24 years in power. these with the seems that feet and the torres said why a prison in inmates were allowed to free us time during bash,

all assets room. many people who oppose the government were taken to underground selves known as the red wing stevens. this is a professor of politics to the university of san francisco. he's also the founding chat. if the university's middle eastern studies explains what's next for sir, is opposition of the fire keys. i believe of the new government. however, it forms is a solidifying control over territories that they are currently operate in trying to restore a government institutions of free, the prisoners help repatriate exiles and displace peoples. i don't think the high priority will be necessarily controlling every meter of syrian territory, though certainly that would be their goal in the long term. i think that the united states, of course, wilkinson can continue to assert it's an interest primarily which is

a trying to cross the remnants of dash will certainly you will have uh, any number of actors. so that will try to influence of what the government looks like. a turkey obviously has their interest of the saudis, the radians others. but i think that what this, what the collapse of the machine has shown is that it's not outside the forces that lead to a sides downfall. but the syrian people and my strong impressions that for good or for l, the syrians will try to form a government that reflects what they believe is their best interest. now obviously, there are many different factions there like any country. it is a broad gap of political opinion and when all opposition was suppressed, all these years of these voices were not uh, not, not heard in the halls of government. now they're gonna try to assert to their, um, you know, their interest serious political and territorial landscape. has been transformed by

the lead to of higher phosphate. awesome awesome at all. shara also known as a boom, habit l. gilani and his fighters, barbara, and go for looks at what his aims are and what it could mean for the future. syria of his emotions as the man leading the charge of fights as in syria. but nicholas known about upper mohammed alto lani is no stranger to the position some of the commendable. he's the leader of how i asked her it a shot. became prominent in 2016 when he announced the re branding of his group. i'm a jump out on the stress and it spits from al qaeda the other. his goal to create what he said was an add to a shame front in syria. i went into mosque us in 1982, i lost track of july and they took a suit and in one he says, references family history of expulsion from the now the pied girl and hides after

the creation of israel in 2003 up to the us inflation of iraq. giovanni left syria joining alcorda in iraq, which led to his subsequent interest and in 2011, to return to syria as the fond of on this row. to take part in the revolution against president bush, alice and most recently, been trying to present a more moderate view of the revolution to take back syria from decades of assets. brit for rule. the a below that evolution that he's began entering the city of how much to send it ties up, the wound that has to be left and cd for 40 years. i as good that it might be that it to be a conquest in which there is no event, but somebody is not going to be out in the southern offensive by opposition. spice . as in syria, quote, much of the world by surprise. and giovanni is now trying to send the message to allies of the syrian government that this time,

things that different come in the same way. it all can probably minister them how much you. yeah. so then the distance, his country late keep from the water between it on and the region. we urge him to distance it. ok from entering the new furnace. so what's happening in syria fuel to and how to do that with the mosse cause. now under the control of a position flight test and talk to more than a decade of conflict, the well to be look into upper mohammed l giovanni to see what type of transition she brings to syria. proper. notice era runs, foreign minister says he's received assurances regarding the security of a wrong diplomatic buildings and she or religious sites in syria. speaking to radian media, abbas a rock, she said it was surprising that the serial nomic could not count to the all positions advances in syria. iraq, she said to her on, was aware of developments inside syria. besides this government was never asked for

help. i a stunning mazda system, how you, it's a lot of our friends and the intelligence and security systems are both iran and syria were fully aware of ongoing movements in and around it lived in the old, relevant information, had been transferred to the syrian government and the syrian army or they themselves, that information which we also received from them along with photos and other details of what was surprising was the inability of the syrian army to account of these moves. and the speed of developments, powell, i'm one of them all fall in how best are interaction with the serial position depends on the behavior. what policy will they adopts towards around what policy will they have to watch? c, as in syria, what will be the distance between them and israel, the distance between them and terrace groups. all of this we will consider to take a host, the largest number of syrian refugees, the full of president bush, r, last night has fault when you debates about the future of refugees and whether they can return home,

send them because you only reports they chanted freedom outside to see you in consulate in a symbol, syrians into a kid had just learned a news. prison push oral assault had been now said in damascus was now in the hands of the opposition fighters. sealants poured into the squares of his stumble and cities across through kit, celebrating the long awaited victory they had dreamed of for more than a decade. today is a day of joy. i don't know how to express this feeling. there was fear inside us. now there's no more fear we are knowing, and you'll say, speaking at the donor form and cuts are the circus for. and this are how confident representing the country hosting, the largest number of syrian refugees that millions of display series can now return to their country. and he called for unity. it is time to unite and reconstruct the country. today we call on all actors in and outside the reason to

act with prudence and come and to refrain from steps does go further. the stop lies the region. the territorial integrity and units of syria must be preserved. 2 system to one to 2 into 3 more than 160000 syrians living in to get, have returned to serial on a voluntary basis. we are in a neighbor who's in house, i was serious for so the refuge after please the civil war in 2011, having in, during the years of conflict and the station of the 2023 earthquake many years say they're willing to go back home, or they will so worried about the future after the full of a set. after off on from the has lived in turkey for 11 years, he has a reason for return, the killing to lose my father has been in jail in syria for 13 years. we don't know his crime or if he's even alive, his prison has been storm and all the inmates were let go. much is,

syria improves us. we may return. i don't know, but also i was raised in turkey, syria is still my home. so what's the thought originally from a level runs a business in this neighborhood? moved by the capture of the capital damascus. he says he's determined to go. no, yeah, hold on. we will return soon, may be in weeks. the key was come to us and we are great. but we want to go back. city is unstable, and officers must 3 establish on the syrian opposition may harass to the south. but for took in the presence of curtis y, p g fighters in northwest and syria poses an immediate threat to its territorial integrity, to fuel by us. support for potential on i mean the future of syria will not depend on it. so young generation and see you in reference to steven took, you will want to have a part in that scene up to solar l to 0 outside onto

a serial border. that's it from the money inside. whether it's next, the inside story exams, a few terms there in a post i saw the or the while, the skies off as hazy. that could be the sun is predominant throughout the room. plants here right up towards the live and then a bit different. when you get to talk you here. once again, the circulation is bringing some heavy rain to grease. we might do the same to west and talk to you. but with the some of the breeze. this time move up to about 17 degrees or size of the code. and the other is that one the ground to the high false a central and eastern talk to the sun will be shining upon it and probably to some full going on. otherwise, it's a pretty little picture it's, it's sunny in the sky is attempted to come up a little bit still tease and admittedly,

or from the coast right across to was bank debt rep to $26.00 here. if you're lucky, then because it cools down to getting the high grand me wrong. like charles, maybe nothing much beyond that. and sunshine predominated increasing breeze lightly down the golf. i think during tuesdays or 25 and max and q 8. and though, how was that consistent with, not strong, but also the quite to anywhere in africa. narrow slides be dry, one or 2 shots, maybe in can you still halting? sounds that then juba is 41, is 5 above average that the system or the next couple days as well. i think there is a significant rain lock in temperatures back in both swan i where it's being particularly recently the same is true around joe, but that'll be century shows. the, the latest news i did, it has more than 18000000 employ titles portfolio and also one. and where does this sound like it's a discount rate that's. that's one of those houses with detailed coverage 1st. so

it's like this top secret both products across different areas from the heart of the story. this dependency activists say that in a well what and a quality is life. it could lead to some feeling the pressure that the lives of simply too much of a button celebration device on in syria. after the shot, an aside is toppled over, thrown by opposition, forces made up of different factions. there is concern now about what might follow . so how will syria be governs and what impact will it have on the regions? this is inside story. the
