Bashar Assad's son reveals details about fleeing Syria
ALBAWABA - Bashar Assad's son Hafez Assad took the internet by storm after an account claiming to be him revealed details about the family's last moments before fleeing to Moscow due to the fall of the notorious Assad regime.
A social media account that goes by the name of "Hafez al-Assad" wrote a series of paragraphs then quickly disappeared sparking speculation and debate about the matter in question.
According to American-Canadian journalist Eva Bartlett, the details in question were first shared on Musk's X (formerly known as Twitter) and Telegram. She further claimed that the account wasn't an imposter and actually belonged to Hafez.
She took to Facebook and wrote, "I can confirm this account is his and not an imposter: We've been in communication recently, and I was aware that he was going to create this Telegram channel and his also account on X."
Hafez Assad's alleged account claimed that "There was no plan, not even a backup, to leave Damascus, let alone Syria." He added further, "Over the past 14 years, Syria has endured hardships" and that whoever wanted to escape, would've done it in those years.
In the second part of the statement shared on social media, Hafez Assad's account added that he visited Moscow before the fall of the Assad Regime, specifically in November 2024 to finish his PhD and visit his mother, Asma Assad who underwent bone transplant surgery in summer due to suffering from cancer.
He added that he was supposed to stay in Moscow to complete his studies but had to go back to Damascus to visit his father Bashar Assad and brother due to the deterioration of the situation in Syria on Dec. 1, 2024. His sister remained with his mother in Moscow.
Hafez Assad then touched on the events that occurred on December 7 and 8 and added:
"As for the events of Saturday, December 7 and 8, on Saturday morning my brother took a math exam at the Higher Institute for Applied Sciences and Technology in Damascus, where he was studying, and he was preparing himself to return to work the next day, and my sister had booked a ticket to return to Damascus on Syrian Airlines on Sunday."
He stated further that to prove that they didn't flee Syria back on December 7, Hafez went down to a park in Damascus, took a picture there, and posted it on his official Instagram account which had been deleted by the time of writing this article.
