CELEBRATIONS erupted around Syria and crowds ransacked President Bashar al-Assad's luxurious home on Sunday after Islamist-led rebels swept into Damascus and declared he fled the country, in a spectacular end to five decades of Baath party rule.
Assad's whereabouts were not immediately clear, but his key backer Russia said he had resigned from the presidency and left Syria.
Residents in the capital were seen cheering in the streets as the rebel factions heralded the departure of "tyrant" Assad, saying: "We declare the city of Damascus free."
