Event Footage: Individual Arranges Barbecue Near Graveside of Hafez Assad
Syrian Man Hosts Barbecue Near Hafez Assad's Grave
In a controversial move, a young man was filmed organizing a barbecue party next to the grave of former Syrian President Hafez Assad. The incident took place in Qardaha, Syria.
The video, circulating online, depicts the man standing with his friends near Assad's grave before setting up the barbecue. He jokingly invites the former president to join the feast, saying, "Hafez, if you can hear me, come and grab a bite."
Since the fall of the Assad regime on December 8, 2024, Syrians have been actively removing symbols linked to the former rulers. This includes the destruction of statues and the removal of pictures and posters from public spaces.
The man's actions can be interpreted as a form of protest against the Assad regime, reflecting a sentiment that is becoming more prevalent among Syrians. However, it remains unclear whether this incident is part of a wider trend or a one-off event.
No further details about the identity of the man or his intentions have been disclosed.
