Description
Syrians at Damascus airport greet relatives with tears of joy, as others dance and sing and carry colourful balloons and flowers, after international flights resumed at Syria's main airport for the first time since Islamist-led forces toppled president Bashar al-Assad last month. "Today, the airport and staff were just different. Before [Assad ousting], the previous staff used to treat us arrogantly, but now things have changed. The [current] staff received us with a smile on the face," says one passenger before boarding a plane to UAE. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES TO COMPLETE VIDI36T33YZ_EN & VIDI36T33Z4_EN & VIDI36T43V4_EN
