The videos, verified by sources, showcase over 40 luxury vehicles stored in a large warehouse in western Damascus, situated north of the Al-Mazzeh neighborhood. Among the impressive lineup are notable cars such as a red Ferrari F50, a Lamborghini, a Rolls Royce, and a Bentley. The presence of a Damascus license plate on at least one of the vehicles further solidifies the connection to Assad.
