Israel’s Islamist Ra’am party and the affiliated Southern Branch of the Islamic Movement issue a statement welcoming the collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s “dictatorial regime,” framing it as “a historic turning point in the Syrian people’s journey.”

The statement says the Syrian nation has made immense sacrifices to restore its honor after living “for decades under a tyrannical regime that served as a tool for persecution, killing, deportation and violation of rights.”

Ra’am adds that the developments are a ray of hope for millions of Syrian refugees worldwide to return to their homeland and help “build a new Syria that will highlight the values of liberty and human respect.”
