Syrian State TV goes from denying military withdrawal to celebrating the “liberation” on the morning after Assad regime’s collapse.
On the eve of Bashar al-Assad’s regime collapse in Syria, on December 7, 2024, a female Syrian TV anchor denied reports of military withdrawals in Homs, stating that the armed forces were ready to defend against any terrorist attacks and accusing Western media of fabricating the news.
However, the following morning, December 8, a male anchor, with the Syrian opposition flag displayed on his desk, declared, "The time has come, and the sun of freedom has risen. The time has come for the removal of injustice and the dark cloud from the skies of our beloved country. […] This is Damascus, the capital of Syria, where the gates of liberty were opened."
