An attempt has been made to kill former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. There has been a fatal attack on him through poison. It is being told that Asad had told his security on Sunday that he was having trouble breathing, and had sought help for treatment. Soon after this he started coughing heavily and feeling suffocated. Seeing this, he was given water, which provided some relief, but his health continued to deteriorate until the doctor arrived.
It is claimed that the attempt to assassinate Assad has taken place when, according to media reports, his relations with Putin have allegedly deteriorated. For example, it is said that the two leaders do not trust each other, but it was Putin who decided to rescue Assad from Syria and take him to Moscow. General SVR, a Telegram channel, claimed that former Syrian President Assad was poisoned, and said that a team of doctors was deployed in his apartment for his treatment.
Russian President Vladimir Putin’s office was also informed about Assad’s condition, after which the Kremlin said in an order that all arrangements for his treatment should be made not in any hospital, but at his home.
