ALBAWABA - A video circulated online showing a young man from the Qardaha city in Syria holding a barbecue party next to the grave of Hafez Assad.
The man appeared in the video standing with a group of his friends next to Hafez Assad's grave in the Qardaha area of Syria, then he prepared a barbecue and placed the meat on it.
In the clip, the Syrian man was heard saying: "I am doing BBQ over the grave of Hafez," then he tells the camera person: "Come and see the meat. I'm doing a barbecue next to Hafez's grave."
Then he mockingly speaks to the former Syrian president: "Hafez, if you can hear me, come and grab a bite."
Since the fall of the Syrian Assad regime, which lasted for over 50 years, on Dec. 8, 2024, Syrians have been destroying all the statues that have any ties with the ex-rulers, like Hafez Assad or Bashar Assad.
They also tore down all pictures and posters from the streets and government institutions, or offices.
