A dramatic video has surfaced showing Syrian Prime Minister Mohammad Ghazi Al-Jalali being escorted by armed rebel forces in Damascus on Sunday. He was reportedly taken to the Four Seasons Hotel to formally transfer government authority.
In the footage, Al-Jalali is seen surrounded by armed men as he walks down steps and enters a black SUV accompanied by another individual.
“The former Prime Minister is with the 5th Corps from the people of Hauran heading to the Four Seasons Hotel for a meeting and to hand over the country’s institutions to the heroes of the Free Army,” the voice in the video said.
Al-Jalali, who had earlier called for free elections and vowed to preserve public institutions and the safety of citizens, is reportedly working with rebel commanders to manage a transitional period following the collapse of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime.
The events in Damascus unfolded as thousands of Syrians gathered in the city’s main square, chanting “Freedom” to celebrate the end of President Bashar al-Assad’s 13-year reign. Assad has reportedly fled to an undisclosed location with his family.
The downfall of the Assad regime came after significant shifts in regional dynamics, including the deaths of key Hezbollah leaders and Russia diverting its focus to the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Syria’s military command has acknowledged Assad’s fall but indicated that military operations against “terrorist groups” continue in Hama, Homs, and the Deraa countryside.
The Islamist rebel coalition’s capture of Damascus has marked the conclusion of decades of Assad family rule. Prime Minister Al-Jalali is reportedly in discussions with rebel commander Abu Mohammed al-Golani to establish a framework for managing the transitional government.
Meanwhile, Turkey-backed Syrian forces are continuing their campaign against Kurdish factions in northern Syria, further complicating the post-Assad political landscape.
