Rebels seize Damascus as Assad flees Syrian capital

Rebel fighters have captured the Syrian capital of Damascus, effectively toppling the Assad regime that has been in power in the country since 1971.

Forces led by opposition group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) entered the city in the early hours of Sunday morning, before appearing on state television to declare Syria to now be "free".

The whereabouts of Bashar al-Assad, the nation's erstwhile president, are unknown. He is believed to have fled the capital on a plane.

The rebels - who made a lightning advance over the past fortnight, taking key cities on the road to Damascus - were greeted with celebrations in the streets as they entered the city.

Update Bashar al-Assad is believed to be granted asylum in Moscow
