According to reports from TASS, Assad and his family arrived in Moscow and were offered asylum on humanitarian grounds.
“Assad and his family members have arrived in Moscow. Russia, for humanitarian reasons, has granted them asylum,” an unnamed Kremlin source confirmed to the agency.
The development underscores Russia’s continued involvement in Syria’s geopolitical landscape. Moscow has emphasized the importance of resuming UN-led negotiations to address the ongoing conflict and stabilize the region.
This marks a significant shift in Syria’s political dynamics, with Assad’s asylum status raising questions about the future leadership and peace-building efforts in the war-torn country.
