Crowds in Aleppo and Damascus celebrated 14 years since the Syrian uprising that ousted Bashar al-Assad.
Syrians in Aleppo and Damascus gathered to celebrate the 14th anniversary of the Syrian uprising.
In Damascus, a Syrian army helicopter dropped flowers and scraps of paper bearing messages of congratulation.
The uprising led to the ousting of former Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad in late 2024, with rebels led by now-interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa's Sunni Islamist group, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, taking power.
Assad fled to Russia, leaving behind key advisers and supporters, while Sharaa’s group formed an interim government and assumed control of Syria’s armed forces.
According to the Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR), more than 16,000 people have died under torture between March 2011 and February 2025, mostly at the hands of the deposed government.
