From sports cars to convertibles to off-roaders, Bashar Al-Assad's car collection goes viral on social media as rebels open doors to his palace; watch video
This comes amid significant developments in Syria, including the seizure of Damascus by rebel forces and overthrowing the dictator whose whereabouts are not known. There have been reports that Assad's army retreated from the Syrian countryside leaving him alone. Syrians in cities around the world were seen celebrating Bashar al-Assad's ouster. Around six million Syrians became refugees during the brutal 13-year war under Assad’s rule.
Assad's car collection is symbolic of the wealth and privilege enjoyed by him and his close associates, particularly in contrast to the average Syrian citizen, who struggles with severe economic hardships. The collection reportedly includes luxury vehicles, showcasing a lifestyle that many find offensive given the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the country.
Assad regime falls
The brutal Bashar Al-Assad's dictatorship fell in Syria in just 11 days. It was sudden and unexpected, after a 24-year reign starting in 2000. His father Hafez Assad ruled the nation from 1971 to 2000.
