Amazing scenes out of Syria. For all that’s to come - and everyone knows it’s going to be rough, that HTS and other opposition are problematic, and that regional powers will do their worst - it’s glorious to see another of these monstrous dictators fall. The Arab uprisings never ended.

My advice to journos covering Syria: this is a complex story to tell with a criminal regime, bad actors, foreign influence & uncertainty of what's to come. Tell complex stories, but center your stories in the agency of Syrians. It's their story, their country, their freedom.
