Residents of Lebanon’s Tripoli marked the takeover of Syria’s capital, Damascus, by anti-regime armed groups on Sunday. According to Lebanese media, celebrations were primarily held in al-Nur Square in Tripoli, where the crowd set off fireworks to commemorate the collapse of the Bashar al-Assad regime.
Similar gatherings took place in northern Lebanese areas, including al-Beddawi and Danniyeh.
In Akkar, near the Lebanese-Syrian border, signs of the Syrian Ba’ath Party were reportedly removed.
At many places in Syria, the residents of Syria, who had been suffering under the cruel hand of Bashar al-Assad, are taking to streets to express their joy and relief. Many prisoners have also been rescued from Syrian prisons.
