Description
"I can tell (my dead brother) that 'you and your comrades, what you started with your blood, thanks to God, is now bearing fruit, with the help of all the heroes from all over Syria'," says Hussein Bendouk as he celebrates with hundreds of Syrian Druze in the streets of Sweida in Syria's mainly Druze southern province. Jubilant Syrians chant and wave the "revolution flag" as they celebrate the fall of Assad in Sweida where weekly anti-government demonstrations have been ongoing for about 18 months. Syria's rebel chief called on people across the country to celebrate "the victory of the revolution" on Friday, as G7 leaders looked to forge a common approach to the new government.
