Syrian leader signs constitution that puts the country under an Islamist group’s rule for 5 years

Syria's Interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa signed a constitutional declaration for a five-year transition, aiming for a new beginning for the country.

The Kurdish-led administration criticized the constitutional declaration, claiming it does not reflect Syria's diversity.
UN Secretary General António Guterres warned that Syria's future is at risk following the ongoing violence, stating that nothing justifies civilian killings.
