Syria stands at the brink of transformation, as power shifts with the approval of Ahmed al-Sharaa as the country's new president. This development was reported by Al Jazeera, drawing on information from SANA, Syria's state-run news outlet.

According to Hassan Abdel Ghani, spokesperson for Syria's interim government, Al-Sharaa's new role entails steering the nation through a transitional period. He is expected to establish a temporary legislative council, facilitate a national political conference, and prepare for elections as Syria moves towards a fresh constitution, all while dissolving existing armed factions by integrating them into state institutions.

This political shift follows a successful offensive by opposition forces against government strongholds, culminating in President Bashar Assad's resignation and exit from Syria, ending the Assad dynasty's decades-long rule.
