Bashar al-Assad’s Lavish Life: From Palaces to Exile in Moscow | Vantage with Palki Sharma

13 years of war have left Syria in ruins, but its former leader, Bashar al-Assad, lived a life of luxury. His palace in Damascus, filled with marble floors, crystal chandeliers, and priceless treasures, was a stark contrast to the suffering of ordinary Syrians. Assad fled to Moscow last week, leaving behind a collapsed economy and a trail of destruction. Meanwhile, rebels are dismantling the $10 billion Captagon drug empire run by his brother, Maher al-Assad. While the Assads live comfortably in exile, their legacy is one of opulence amidst tragedy. Palki Sharma tells you more.
