In a significant milestone for Syria’s recovery, Syrian Air launched its first domestic flight on Wednesday after the ousting of President Bashar al-Assad.
Syrian Air marked a major milestone in the country's recovery by launching its first domestic flight on Wednesday.
The flight, bound for Aleppo from Damascus International Airport, carried 43 passengers, including journalists.
This flight marks the first domestic route since Assad's removal from power on December 8, after insurgent forces, led by the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), took control of the capital.
Saad Kheir Beik, director of internal flights at Damascus Airport, confirmed that all operational preparations are in place. “All staff are ready, the planes are ready, and we are working on resuming international flights once we complete some operational procedures,” he said.
The resumption of domestic air travel signals a pivotal moment in Syria’s ongoing transformation as the country begins to rebuild in the wake of a 13-year civil war. The world is closely watching to see if Syria’s new rulers can stabilize the nation as the country remains divided along sectarian and ethnic lines.
