Arab media sources confirmed press reports that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was on Saturday evening for serious injury after suffering a shots fired by a member of his personal guard.
The sources said that President
Assad was transferred to Shami Hospital in Damascus, suffering from
wounds and described it as very serious, and he is fighting for his life
there, while the Syrian army has closed all roads leading to the
hospital. Even the
meantime there has been no official statement by the system, while
sources close to him denied what was in the news altogether, noting that
the president was in good health and high spirits, and will deliver a
keynote speech in the coming days.
The MSM is not reporting on this as of yet. I'm assuming because its
unconfirmed. If true, it would be a huge blow to the government side.
