a HUGE blow to assad's regime,for those who knows how the syrian baath works,Shawkat is the real leader of syria and bashar is simply a puppet. Shawkat is so protective and secretive that he doesnt have a recent photo, last picture that was taken of him was in 2001.
also the Interior Minister has been confirmed dead in surgery.
