Everything you need to know about the fall of Bashar al-Assad | The Daily T Podcast

In a whirlwind 48 hours, more than half a century of brutal Assad family rule in Syria came to an end this weekend. Rebel forces entered Damascus after a lightning offensive that forced the Syrian president to flee on a plane to Moscow.

Kamal and Camilla speak to Ruth Sherlock - who after years of reporting on the Syrian civil war is en route back into the country - about the chaotic scenes on the streets of Damascus, where armed fighters have descended.

And Tom Tugendhat MP, who has served in Iraq and Afghanistan, speaks to the Daily T about his “deep concern” at the power vacuum in Syria, whether the UK should still proscribe the leading rebel group as a terrorist organisation, and what Assad’s departure means for Iran and Russia.
