Thousands turned out for a “Liberation Festival” in the Syrian city of Aleppo on Saturday, December 21, to celebrate the end of the Assad regime.
The event included appearances by the Syrian singer Yahya Hawwa, media host Homam Hout, and influencer Yaman Najaar, according to a poster advertising the event.
Footage from journalist Obada Jbara shows thousands of people, including children, thronging Aleppo’s Saadallah Al-Jabri Square and waving the flag of the Syrian opposition which, after the fall of President Bashar al-Assad, became the country’s de facto national flag.
