08.12.2024 ⇢ The day Damascus fell and Notre Dame rose
⌨Coverage began with Notre Dame's reopening ceremony, continuing from previous day's preparations, but was quickly overshadowed by rapid developments in Syria. By early morning, rebel forces announced control of Homs and began advancing toward Damascus. Within hours, multiple sources reported rebels entering the capital, followed by confirmation of Assad's flight, reportedly to Moscow.
Spanish media tracked the collapse of the 13-year regime through increasingly detailed reports, noting the surrender orders to military units and the rebels' capture of state television. By afternoon, coverage shifted to analyzing implications: Russia and Iran's weakened position as Assad's allies, the impact on regional conflicts including Israel-Hamas, and the future of Syria under rebel control.
Domestic coverage remained focused on EU political instability, with reports highlighting how crises in France and Germany weaken the union's position ahead of potential Trump return.
