"Syria, with all its beauty and rich history, remains in our hearts"- Asma Assad breaks silence

Asma al-Assad, wife of former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, has ended her long-held silence. Asma al-Assad posted message on X,

"Syria, with all its beauty and rich history, remains in our hearts. We wish its people safety and prosperity and hope for the return of happy days to every corner of this beloved land."

"The homeland is an unbreakable force, and its children are the undying hope. No matter the challenges, their determination remains stronger than all difficulties. Together, we face the future with resolve and hope. Each person has their own path, and some paths were never my choice. As always, I share my thoughts here, away from any other headlines. Some stages in life are indelible, remaining etched in memory with all their details. Is it time to share them?"

This public shift follows the Assad family's departure from Syria after Hayat Tahrir al-Sham took control of Damascus, marking the end of over 50 years of Al-Assad family rule.
