BREAKING: Syrian Rebels Enter Damascus, President Bashar Al-Assad Flees; Chaos at Damascus Airport

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has reportedly fled Damascus to an undisclosed location as rebel forces entered the capital, marking a dramatic turn in the country’s 13-year conflict.

The insurgents, fresh off their capture of the key city of Homs, declared Damascus "militarily fallen" amid reports of gunfire and explosions.

Chaos erupted at Damascus airport as it was evacuated, flights were suspended, and passengers scrambled to safety.

Rebels also liberated detainees from the notorious Saydnaya prison.

Assad’s regime appears to be crumbling as opposition fighters make swift advances across strategic regions, cutting off key routes and threatening his stronghold.
