  • The Syrian government fell early Sunday in a stunning end to the 50-year rule of the Assad family after a sudden rebel offensive sprinted across government-held territory and entered the capital in 10 days.

The article from MSN discusses the unexpected collapse of the Assad family's 50-year rule in Syria, which ended abruptly due to a combination of internal dissent, economic collapse, and international pressure.

Key factors contributing to this downfall included widespread protests, the defection of high-ranking officials, and the failure of Russian and Iranian support to stabilize the regime.
