In a significant move that could reshape Syria's political landscape, New Syrian Administration Leader Ahmad al-Sharaa has formally requested Russia to hand over former President Bashar al-Assad, according to a report by Reuters.
The request marks a pivotal moment in Syria's ongoing efforts to address the aftermath of years of conflict. Ahmad al-Sharaa, who recently assumed leadership, is seeking to hold Bashar al-Assad accountable for actions taken during his presidency.
Russia, a longstanding ally of Assad during the Syrian civil war, has yet to respond to al-Sharaa's appeal. The outcome of this request could have substantial implications for regional stability and international relations.
Global observers are closely monitoring the situation, as any development could significantly impact the dynamics in the Middle East. The international community awaits Russia's response to understand the potential shifts in alliances and power structures.
