61-YEAR-OLD BA'ATH REGIME HAS COLLAPSED
The Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party came to power in Syria through a coup in 1963. In 1970, Hafiz al-Assad, Bashar al-Assad's father, seized power through an internal party coup and became the President of Syria in 1971. Bashar al-Assad took over the Ba'ath regime in 2000 after his father's death. The Assad and Ba'ath regime came to an end with the entry of anti-regime groups into the capital Damascus. In 2011, as popular movements began in Syria demanding freedom, the regime intervened violently against the masses. The regime's interventions, which resulted in the deaths of thousands, turned the process into a civil war. While armed opposition groups entered a long struggle, the regime refused to seek a diplomatic and peaceful solution to the problem despite international pressures. Following the intensification of clashes in Syria on November 27, the regime lost control in many regions, starting from Aleppo, Idlib, and Hama.
