UK PM urges peace, stability in Syria after Assad's fall

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Sunday called for peace and stability in Syria after the fall of its president Bashar al-Assad in the face of an Islamist-led rebel offensive.

"The Syrian people have suffered under Assad's barbaric regime for too long and we welcome his departure," Starmer said in a statement.

"Our focus is now on ensuring a political solution prevails, and peace and stability is restored," he added, calling for "civilians and minorities" to be protected.
