On Sunday, rebel fighters made a bold declaration on Syrian state television, announcing the liberation of the capital city of Damascus from the rule of Bashar al-Assad. The spokesperson, surrounded by fellow rebels, proclaimed the overthrow of Assad and the release of oppressed prisoners from regime prisons.
The rebels emphasized the importance of protecting all property in the newly liberated Free Syria, calling for unity among Syrians of all sects. This announcement came after the rebels successfully entered Damascus and captured state media offices.
