Syria after the fall of Damascus

We have the latest on what is happening in Syria after President Assad left the country.

Syrian rebels say they are working towards forming a transitional government, a day after they captured Damascus and ousted President Bashar al-Assad.

We hear from Syrians inside the country and from exiles who now are planning to return home.

We also visit 麻豆社 Arabic and 麻豆社 Russian services to find out about the reaction in their regions.

And, our Middle East experts answer audience questions about the developments in Syria.
