Syria’s Assad claimed to have been killed in plane crash
An aircraft, claimed to have been carrying Syrian President Bashar Assad, took off from Damascus airport when the terrorists seized control of the capital and vanished from radar mid-flight, Western media reported.
Speculation swirls over the fate of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad amid claims that a plane he was allegedly on may have crashed or been shot down.
Two Syrian sources said there was a very high probability that Assad may have been killed in a plane crash as it was a mystery why the plane took a surprise U-turn and disappeared off the map, Reuters news agency claimed.
Reuters could not immediately ascertain who was on board.
The Syrian government fell early Sunday in a stunning end to President Bashar al-Assad’s 24-year rule over the Arab country after the Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) terrorists group stormed and captured the capital Damascus.
