In December 2024, Bashar AssadAnnounced renunciation President of SyriaAfter the post, he fled to Russia, and since then there have been no messages.
On October 2, this year, the Russian media suddenly exploded that Assad was murdered by a drug, and was in danger of death!
On September 22, 2025, Assad was taken to a highly classified hospital in Moscow.
At this time, his condition was very critical. He was not only pale, but also accompanied by symptoms such as severe cough and shortness of breath, which also led to nervous system disorder, and his life was once in critical condition.
After repeated examinations, the doctor determined that there was an unknown toxin in Assad's body, which was suspected of being poisoned and assassinated.
Fortunately, after 11 days of rescue, Assad finally saved a life, but has not appeared publicly so far.
On October 2, after Assad's situation improved, relevant Russian media disclosed the fact that he was previously poisoned.
But more remarkable are the hospital visits requests, which clearly prohibited Assad's brother from entering the hospital, and in turn the former secretary-general of the presidential palace, Azam, was allowed to visit.
Assad’s brother is the commander of the Syrian Republic Guard, or an important pillar of his family regime.
The outside world can see at a glance that this is a political signal released by Russia:
The Assad family is already divided, and the Kremlin is leading the redistribution of control over this "old ally".
Just three days after Assad's poisoning, the new Syrian government led by former "terrorist" Julani quickly issued a global wanted order for him, accusing him of suppressing protesters in 2011.
On October 2, on the day Assad was discharged from hospital, Julani's confidant Defense Minister also visited Russia as a "distinguished guest". This series of coincidences at timing is full of tricks.
As for who is behind this poisoning case, there is no conclusion at present.
Although three major suspicions have emerged, there are still serious doubts.
Some point directly to the Julian regime, after all, they were eager to use Assad’s “people’s head” in exchange for Western recognition, just as they stood on the United Nations table shouted the slogan “cut off with the Bashar era.”
But it is clear that even the new government is unable to cope with the Israeli bombing and is not capable of precisely poisoning Moscow, which is closely protected by the Russian army.
Although Israel’s Mossad has a tradition of assassination, it prefers efficient means such as shooting, exploding, and risks with toxins that are difficult to control do not fit its style.
Others point the finger at the "shadow system" within Russia.
From Litvinenko to Navalny, the KGB’s “toxic tradition” has long been a secret, and the toxic characteristics in Assad’s body are exactly the same as the Russian poison.
More importantly, for economic reasons, since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian war, Russian finances have shaken, energy revenues have declined sharply, and the Assad family's secretly stored huge assets in the Russian-European Bank have become seductive "life-saving money".
Some experts say: “On the grounds of Moscow, the possibility of poisoning Assad is not noticed, unless implied.”
However, there is also the belief that someone wanted to borrow the pot from Russia, but in the end, this assassination is essentially a shortcut of the game of great powers.
As early as early in September, France sought Assad for the “2012 assassination of a legal journalist,” Ukrainian President Zelensky openly called for extradition, while the United States implicitly liquidated the Julian regime of the old forces, all want to use Assad to beat Russia.
The Kremlin is facing two difficulties: handing Assad over in exchange for cooperation with the new Syrian government, preserving the strategic interests of the Tartus naval base, but putting on the nickname of “disbelief.”
But if you don't pay, it will not only be difficult to break through the western sanctions, but you will also have to continue to support this political burden.
Today's Assad is no longer the "anti-terrorism hero" who was saved by Putin with thousands of missiles ten years ago.
The man at the time, who shouted, “I’d rather die than go into exile,” now crumbled in the shadow of Moscow, unable to see even his brother.
The truth about this drug case may never be fully disclosed, but it’s enough to give us a glimpse of the cruel reality that in the right-wing game, the more powerful rulers can also become the gamblers of the deal of the great powers.
