Part 2/6:
Traveling toward Damascus, visual remnants of Assad’s military prowess scatter the landscape. Abandoned tanks and military gear line the highways, discarded by soldiers who deserted the regime in haste.

This stark backdrop signifies the disarray within Assad's forces, offering a glimpse into the chaos that followed his downfall.
Above, the presence of Israeli jets serves as a reminder of the ongoing tensions in the region, but this does little to dilute the celebratory spirit among the crowds.
