The New Syrian Flag Is Raised, Here's The History And Meaning

The New Syrian Flag Was Raised (Between)

The new Syrian flag finally flew. The raising was carried out by rebel forces after they succeeded in bringing down the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad regime. The collapse of President Bashar al-Assad's rule was marked by the success of rebel forces in capturing the capital of Damascus.

Please note, the Syrian flag used to be in the red (upper), white (medium) and black (low) era of Bashar al-Assad. There is a symbol of two green stars in the middle (white).

Meanwhile, the new Syrian flag raised by the rebels was green (upstream), white (medium), and black (bottom) with the symbol of three red stars in the middle (white).

The new Syrian flag is owned by the opposition group, Hayat Tahrir Al Sham (HTS). The armed group has continued to introduce the flag since declaring its resistance to Bashar Al Assad's troops.

The flag that was flown during Bashar Al Assad's rule has actually been owned for a long time. The Syrian flag currently in use, reported by ZeeNews, has existed since 1980. The flag has symbolic meaning.

The red color is intended as a form of respect for those who sacrifice with Syrian freedom, while white symbolizes hope in a peaceful future. Black symbolizes the struggle facing Arabs. While the green star symbolizes a close relationship between Syria and Egypt.

However, currently the flag is considered to symbolize authoritarianism and control of the ruling Assad regime for decades.

As a form of resistance, armed rebels then introduced the "Brighter of Independence". The flag also symbolizes the rebel position as an opposition to the Assad government.

With the lifting of the new Syrian flag, the country managed to make a new history of its independence.

Quoted from ZeeNews, After the rebels announced the fall of the Assad regime on television, the flag belonging to the armed opposition began to be flown in all corners. Even the flag became a symbol of celebration not only flown in Syria but in the Syrian community in several countries.

The design of the new Syrian flag is similar to the flag of Syrian independence which was flown in 1932. At that time, Syria managed to free itself from the shackles of French colonialism.

Currently, the red star Syrian flag is considered by the community as a new early symbol. The flag means a lot to people seeking freedom in the Assad regime era. The opposition also carries the values of freedom and autonomy which of course is reflected in their flag.
