to there's a bit of the the breaking news at this hour live on off the international at the russian form. industry says syria is laid out by charlotte side has left his presidential post on the country. this in order for a peaceful transition of power office told to the various conflicting parties. and it's all come as, as a terrorist forces sees the syrian capital less than 2 weeks off the launching a shock offensive. and i'll probably the presidential pilots and have taken over the state and tv station the, the kind of put on some local state to the street to celebrate the affordable authority is many others. however, stay at home fair and pull that safely. and he is really prime minister. netanyahu arriving at the border with serious saying the change of power in damascus is the

result of his ready strikes on iran and has the lot. that's a good idea to avoid his troops and seizes the buffers. started with syria under the pretext of protecting the we are continuing operate can use our coverage. i live for most go and what it they, it's been for the bottled people of syria under the hammer of terrorist and militant function. the russian of farm industry has now stated that the syrian president has left the country. i think the often negotiations with the middleton functions, sharla side left his presidential post. and that is, as you had as far as his end of the capital of the mass coast and seized control shortly off the capturing the city of homes in the north. and moscow has appealed to all parties involved, to renounce violence and resolve the issues of governance through political means. it states, russian military bases in syria are on a higher load, adding,

there's no serious threat to that security. with a stream concern. the dramatic events in syria as a result of negotiations between mister l. a side and a number of participants in the conflict on the territory of the syrian arab republic, he decided to resign from the presidency and left the country, instructing a peaceful transfer of power. russia did not participate in these negotiations. at the same time, we make a strong appeal to all parties involved, to renounce the use of violence, and to result all the issues of governance through political means. in that regard, the russian federation is in contact with old groups of the syrian opposition. the hottest forces in syria, they entered the capital of damascus and essentially to control the people who gathered on the streets of the syrian capital of pulling down the

monument to a son's father. the former president hoford's. i'll aside, he wrote the country from 71 until his death in 2000 militants. that broke the stuff to into pieces and well yet, so what happened to the rest of this? were you able footage of these unfolding events? so this video here reportedly capturing the moment when the various militants, imaginary forces to control of the syrian state, tv and radio headquarters and things of chaos as well that the mass coast international app or people trying to leave the country with this vehicle. it has since essentially shut down flights of grounded employees have been a back in the following video, apparently showing militants so solving the premises of the presidential pilots as a 5 machine guns into the air. all this as a, wherever, a balance of one shot outside remain on no other syria and 5 minutes left his residence to hand over his official powers to the militants that have taken over an office in a hotel to damascus. so you can see him leaving his home here, although he's basically being escorted out by various militants. he has

a free elections to be held to allow the syrian people to choose the next, the 15 more. let's get more of this now as possible at the middle east journalism i like highlighted now joining us here on how to international. thank you so much for coming on the program during operating use coverage, of course. so much shop hora surprise as what's been happening to syria now, not just in the past a week and a half, 2 weeks, but actually in the past 24 hours my like a, we've got a whole bunch of various functions of most and areas, militants and terrorist that have taken control of damascus, this essentially leading to a back to when it comes down to the authority in the country, my guess to say that's going to be in fighting between these different various options. other people are saying, expect a full scale civil war, my luck, your thoughts? well, i think it's very early to decide to take this is going to lead us as it were because what has been happening is here for the past 12 years as kind of the civil

war through the provide the arms and money by defend the exterior parties. so if this is to be renewed, this is something that the students have experienced but different, but a branding of how much was become southerly set out. and what has been to the most because in the past the few hours, you would think that the people who had made this decision to put aside the thought and to bring these uh, added guys, that's where it pulls the edges and a position. a few, few years ago, uh, the branding of the branding that has been done on this so far. we're not what this thing, what is supposed to be is to but we're at for, for the case of what as you called the cdn. so when we are communicating with a really and see, you know, what the might the upcoming days unfold,

the 1st co sequence off what has happened is that it has a di, occupied part of the, the in the saw and, and the hottest. so yeah, it has time to. yeah, i mean, we talked about, you mentioned the golden heights my like, i appreciate you during that, i mean we see syria moving into this new that sorry, sorry, nothing. yahoo! moving into this buffalo design, i've already had a pundits already today talking about the great, the israel project, some people saying it actually started off in 911 and he and he was seeing it essentially play out in real time. a lot of people say that's a conspiracy theory is a really applying of all this great to israel, that i couldn't even yahoo be really thinking of it right now as well as the thing . yeah, i'm looking at it and tell me who has a and previous getting has this that is busy. don't see a commit to the is there any um,

a 100 see all the highest multiplan spit to see if this is a conspiracy that the whole patient. one is fine, is a conspiracy and the whole existence of the so called is the, it is a conspiracy the exist? yes. does. this can hundreds and thousands, hundreds of thousands of us didn't use to be existing on the a plus and love and, and cause of these people to be existing now. yes. and so it's doing now and, and cbs, when nothing else to this, this, the idea today was called the buffer zone. what we know by now is that, that is the 80 times have already taken over. this was the one that they are actually targeting every means of a minute to the supplies or admitted to the stores. that's what of that belongs to that. see it in our me before. what's happening is to now now brings back to or maybe it is

a lot of just use that we have seen and it out and 2003 is that american limitation on the top of the guys for the 8 key capital. we know how this is going to go. we know what is the top of the down the sections of the previous, the presidents. yeah, we know that this is to, you know, have some feelings. so i don't have the feelings, but then we know what happens next. we know what the, the, off the national, the bottom of what, what, what it led to and now we're seeing this in cdn. yeah. my life can i can i can i jump in because i think you make a very, very good point. apologize for interrupting you, but you know, authoration a rocky freedom was a st. sleep tight hold for the brutal invasion of iraq operation unified protect to was the and jelic name for the destruction of libya. operation enduring freedom was the virtuous name given to the unjust invasion of afghanistan. and here we are now

with high. yeah, tony and i'll show him rebranded, which will conform icon i'll kind of for my eyes is now if i got tied to it, i'll show you know, their head guy, this guy, july, the mohammed of july, guess what? he's just being on cnn, celebrated as like a freedom fighter, an opposition man. i mean, can you help me get my head around this? my lack was about to shut off the x. how much will i need for that of the journalist to have the interview with him because i had had to convince him of the civil don't see he wants to been and then you'll see the yeah, the had to call it had had that's the easiest thing you can ever imagine these people kinetic and we have seen what they the talk to the why is this it out and see the on the yeah. and live on the old from the bombings. what you can have you had at all is that this is the american way. this is the call one way of presenting

the words they would say how something and they would try and try it and try it in the same way. and when it says they would actually think evicted and the end of the day that it comes, could not sustain it off the americans could not sense. then you can get a level because let's remember what's happened to somebody in space and baby with in the eighty's. let's remember what happened and after that expense, they, the course has called the war and, and this is the 4th and 11. and he has called it something related to the war between the items wrong, excess of, you know, all these terms. that's where you stand in the end of the day. america could not stand staying on down because never do that and often get, well, i'm not, i mean, sorry to jump in. i do apologize again. but meantime, a senior us official is uh oh gotta, you know,

i didn't even want to get there right now. i just wanted to say, okay, senior us official. he says, we're going to keep our boots on the ground and syria because we're facing a new threat from isis. let's be clear about this. isis never attacked is riley or american assets. why would they attack that pay? mazda is for goodness sakes. so my luck, next time we're going itself along up my like a colored is a middle east, gerard, and joining us there are now 2 international. thank you for your time. okay. well, regional reaction is pouring in the is there any prime minister arriving to the border with syria or and saying the change of power and the mass goes with the result of israel to regional strikes on iran and has blah a story. but so this is a historic day in the history of the middle east. the sod regime is a key linking around axis of evil has fallen, and this is a direct result of the blows we delta iran and has bullocks, the main supporters of the regime. this created a chain reaction. our primary objective is to protect our border and controlled for nearly 50 years by a 1974 buffer zone agreement. it is collapsed,

siri and soldiers a band into their positions yesterday with full support of defense minister and the cabinet. i instructed the id up to seize this buffer zones, and adjacent strategic positions was we won't allow any hostile force to establish itself at our border. at the same time. we are working towards the policy of good neighborliness. that same good neighborliness that we established here when we built this is ro, remains vigilant and prepared for whatever comes next on one hand as it. and you have always just stated is real welcome to the fall of the resuming damascus. but on the other, it brings new security challenges along israel's borders. the prime minister are heading for size that israel will not tolerate any hostility from series new rulers . and this is why it that'd be awful, is there and were some days so likely in anticipation of the reasons collapse, these real has been already strengthening is presence on the golan heights. at the

border with syria. the idea of has even been conducting the wheels. they are to prepare for potential revel crossings into is rarely territory. and conversely, as you have just heard, is really troops have been deployed to the bosses zone on the israel syria bode established on the 1974 this engagement agreement and followed confirmation from the when force monitoring the here we are in that armed individuals had entered the office of violating the agreement. and additionally, as mentioned, the whole noted, the syrian army previously stationed in that area for security purposes, has withdrawn from us position is from boston as well to staff, a and, and earlier we also heard from ideas chief of stock piece warren syrian rebels against attempted to you know, or even thinking about infiltrate and israel, the vin, we are monitoring the situation very closely with all our intelligence gathering capabilities. the primary focus is on observing iran's movements in interest,

which is our top priority. the secondary focus is on local factions for taking control of the area, assessing their actions, behavior and deterrence levels, and ensuring they do not mistakenly director actions toward us. if such confusion does arise, there will be an offensive response, backed by very strong defensive responses. we must be prepared both often simply and defensive. we can see that they are indeed monitoring care for the big time, these random military and political leadership, helping frequently meet again for some days to assess the situation. the cabinet david met on saucer de haile, and who's also is about is typically a day of rest here from an attendance. and yeah, who will be convenient. another space session later on sunday, apparently off to he comes back from the border with syria posts from troops deployment. they have been also reports to office reading tanks. moving into the court made the right area right along the board of a serious i'm confirmed. the report suggests the idea of it when fires move or is

across the border of the rebel forces to control the village is close to is, is ro from these really side. we hear that the idea has set up new check points in the gall and hides limiting freedom of movement. agriculture lines have been declared closed to mail it to resigns farmers act. so that actually accessible any like local people are moving. they're restricted significantly. local communities are mobilizing as well, and some villages we hear how have decided not to send children to school. so security is on high alert system. the a thoughtful is a mixed back for israel. i have to say it's a big blow to the you run his bow, a c re access that israel has long opposed and has long been fighting against. but also the new players in syria, including their radical factions that are openly hostile to israel raising serious concerns for now is what was watching like from the sidelines as no secret that the

rebels have been fights. and israel's anime is and see written israel having students that way. in fact, some horrible factions have able to express the gratitude earlier for ease. well, here's one example. let's take a listen and them. and we are fully aware that the iranian axis has become weak. it began to collapse after these really bombardment of hezbollah and its leaders. the axis was generally very weak and there was no resistance. the factions advanced was rapid and unexpected. we truly think is real for its defeat of this axis. but again, in the long term, israel has no illusions about the nature of the rebels. they know that they are hostile to israel. i mean they, we made a troubling neighbor for is relevant, but as long as they did not oppose it, direct threat to create a territory is, will stick to these policy, you know, and gauge shipments. but again, and this is what we've just now heard from a problem. it is for benjamins and yeah, we have if, if this changes and they start by using direct threat to israel, secure to israel will retaliate and act accordingly. by the way,

all the syrian neighbors are also taking precautions in lab and on a senior living. his army official told in all to correspondence that the army has fully deployed along its eastern border with syria covering at 120 square kilometer . a way to prevent milton infiltration as well, and all military units are on high alert all across the country. in a similar move, iraq has closed. they are the kind border crossing for which serious soldiers has recently passed and strengthened that area of this war. the defense is with advanced cameras. so again, historically developments that will affect the entire region. and we have to wait to see exactly how the rapidly evolving situation in syria. yvonne has finally broken its silence with a strategic response from its ministry of foreign affairs. just an hour ago, the ministry released the statement, our ed underscored their wives advocacy for upholding celia's unity,

sovereignty and territorial integrity. firmly placing the faith of syria, syria in the hands of its people without external interference. the other statement, right, of course, are the ministries call up to swiftly and military comforts combat terrorism, right. engage in a comprehensive national dialogue reflects a proactive approach taken by the one towards establishing an inclusive uh, government that represents all syrian voices. one, we in rates of support for international mechanisms are particularly un resolution 2254, which was issued back in 2015 and the civil war back then calling for a political transition process and new constitutions of free and fair elections. and of course, the fight against terrorism would syria now standing at

a pivotal moment. the one in statement says ensuring the safety of all citizens and also protecting a cultural and diplomatic assets, including the iranian diplomatic mission and maintaining regional stability are critical issues that need to be addressed and paid attention to buy. uh, any, a force that tries to take power and serial. now what's interesting is that the statement, beautifully highlights being during friendship between iran and syria, emphasizing mutual benefits and syria strategic position. and we turn, it's also on the some of the public pledges for relentless efforts to safeguard security and stability in the our country and engagements ongoing dialogue with key regional and domestic players in syria. in light of the recent developments in syria, the ministry of foreign affairs of the islamic republic of iran, while recording it runs principled position of respecting serious unity,

national sovereignty and territorial integrity. emphasizes that determining serious faith and making decisions about its future is solely the responsibility of the people of this country without destructive intervention or foreign imposition, of course, or want initially did not expect such an end game for the charlotte side saying this might be the same as when vices or dice terrorists emerged back in 2011 in that region, including in syria. when assad's grape on power did not face even a crack this time to yvonne did. it's best to try to protect all the sag rule and syria believes the militants are supported by the west to serve their interests in the entire region. of course, since the escalation began in syria, iran has been quite vocal about this issue and has been denouncing, as well as the us blaming the whole ship bank on those countries. mother didn't go

to high according to our information active terrorist groups in syria have close ties with the united states and design is regime. and these groups are trying to divert attention from the crimes of the zionist resume in palestine and lebanon. they have encouraged the creation of insecurity in syria. the tech theory groups abuse the ceasefire with the support of the us and the zion is regina and begin their attacks in a level and in syria. almost surely the finances of the resistance and the syrian government, with the support from the islamic republic. oh, and will, will lead to other losses their history only to bother him. we hope the problem that has arisen in syria will promptly as law mc nation's to intervene and not allow the us in israel to use this internal conflict in their favor. we have never had and will not have any great over the borders and territorial integrity of other countries. we believe regional countries can solve regional problems with their own power and through dialogue. there is no need for foreigners, however,

they are now in the region. this disaster that is happening in the region is unfortunately being carried out with the support of the united states and european countries and the weapons they are giving to his room. so there one says it's outraged by the west support for the entire side groups. the one in foreign ministry has also accused um, of course i, ukraine of eating on the edge. yes, there are numerous reports released by your audience turkish, russian, and even aramis sources suggesting that ukraine is providing support to these groups in exchange for assistance by those groups. in deploying extremist forces to fight alongside the ukrainians against the russian forces. everyone says, this is a dangerous game staged by ukraine. as the domino effect of syria's instability will gripped the whole region. well, the western place certainly wasted no time celebrating jihad. his 10 minutes in

some most scenario res, taking control of damascus all the while, claiming that the only thing they want is security in the middle east. well, we're, let's get some more detail on this. and of course i talking to, but a rachel mazda and joining us here on the program as we continue without breaking news coverage. rachel, great to get you on so quickly. just amazing when it comes to the reactions we're getting from southern western players and the well the, you know, the west, the media and political landscape seemingly celebrating the fall of syria and leaving behind a potential terrorist paradise. rage yeah, well the group that rampaged through syria and rock right up to the mosque is this group called the highest tar you. some are h t s wasn't just officially considered a terrorist group by washington. but the european union is agency for asylums on website also describes them as quote, frequently committing serious human rights abuses, including harassment, assassinations, kidnapping and torture,

as well as on awful detection of civilians and having committed suicide bombings, hostage taking, extortion and assassination. but hey, the western process recently been promoting the scan that this face lifted version of al qaeda is also woke with its leaders saying things and videos like diversity is a strength you'd think that are tied as old monkey bar positions of course has been replaced with social justice training or something. the same h t s. leader mohammed al gilani listed as wanted by washington to the tune of a $10000000.00 bounty and under a united nations arms and borrow since 2013 for pelham, around with isis. has the natives operation quote together we return according to britain's telegraph, which is apparently our way of saying qu data. and he has the western media saying that his regime will be, quote, more lenient than the taliban in afghanistan. wow,

let's not go crazy here. that's a pretty high bar, right in black and white on the use website. it says that the objective of h t, as, as the quote, established islamic rule in syria by over throwing aside. yet these 9 nation special envoy for syria called the crew by the same group, a quick watershed moment to which the looks forward with hope or the un looks forward to with hope for quote, peace, reconciliation, dignity, and inclusion. why stop there? why not just ask for g, heidi pride parade, all your edits? britain's deputy prime minister also well comes the change from a side reminds me of when the west here, the overthrow of more mark adolphe, by their local proxies in libya, and set it onto the path of becoming a failed state. meanwhile, the former head of britons and my 6 is telling the british press that it would be quote, rather ridiculous if britain could not deal with these guys just because there on

washington's terrorist list, it's almost like he has no idea that's us. sanctions serve to give washington 1st dibs to the explosion of its allies like with iran sanctions. for example, shopping. it's a bit they are to do business with the guy who is a paling around with the isis head shoppers. now that he's self identified as a statesman and talk like talks like he says, well, the diversity and inclusion manual which is barely also enough of an act to seduce the french president. the barbaric state has fallen. at last, i pay tribute to the syrian people to their courage, to their patients. in this moment of uncertainty, i send them my wishes for peace, freedom and unity. france will remain committed to the security of all in the middle east. the west is really talented, really good at speeding down and we're seeing change highway tearing all the way,

but not so great at finding exit ramps that just don't go straight off the cliff speaking of which here's the german chest or olaf schultz riding shotgun with his foreign minister and the lena bear box, whose navigational skills are so great that she, infamously, thinks that he, you turn is 360 degrees. charlotte saw depressed his people brutally. he has countless lives on his conscience that has driven numerous people to flee. many of whom have arrived in germany, but one thing is clear. the end of a sudden means the 1st great sigh of relief from millions of people in syria after and a ton of tea of the atrocities of the sod regime. it turns out that bare bach also didn't get the memo from the you that the guys taking over syria or the ideological successors of the group. i will try to that her western powers hold responsible for nose diving into the pentagon and new york's twin towers on september 11th, 2001. so

a bit late for trying to prevent syria from being taken over by radicals. that's what you're tearing genius. surely the use top diplomat, it's new for administer would be well aware that the blocks on website describes these terrorists is having forced religious minorities to convert to islam. the right the facades dictatorship is a positive and long awaited development. it also shows the weakness of a sides backers, russia, and around. our priority is to ensure security in the region. i will work with all the constructive partners in syria and in the region. it's almost like all these people share the same single brains out. well, it looks like she's too busy assessing over russia and around to even care who these guys are. indeed off these rachel mazda and what was always a good look at today's top stories. thanks rich. what's making you earlier with independent? does john list us on your vendor then?

who told us the west clearly has his hands involved and toppling to be a side regime in the west is interested. we all know the excess of evil from george bush is set the time many years in 2001 after the collapse of the, you know, the terrible thing. what happened in the us. he went straight away, says the axis of evil and syria is fox or westport is part of the axis of evil. they want to destroy syria. they did already with libya. they did already with arrest with i've done some of this is retail. yes. sion, i think we tell the issue, and also it has to do with the ukraine conflict. this is what i want to say, because we all know and to reasons weeks we heard steps ukraine is, you know, was there on the ground. they were there with did you have if they were, you know, with that and trying to make them go to y'all do and at tech. so there was this the ukrainians window and this is very terrible. i mean this a high up says he,

as young it's was in the, it is big, but not that big. that they couldn't go on their own into what are they now conquering. so they had the backups of turkey and the backup of the us. perhaps nato as well, and it's a cool, it's a cold from the west, and this is what we are seeing and which is unfolding. and i must say they didn't go to the coastal area and yet that's what i heard from my people family. there are not yet, and so twos, there are not yet in. so if you to or let's up here. but we don't know is there really is there going to, if they have the child's to go there. but of course, the most goods has full and it's what we heard. and this is very terrible because there are a lot of communities like christian communities there. and so, and already, you know, on the internet and i heard this already, tara, going on there. so it's horrible to next, a is 11, all we already see.
