Daily life returning to Syria as new leaders build nation

Season 2024 Episode 348 | 5m 47s

Days after Bashar al-Assad’s overthrow, Syria's capital appears to be functioning. Streets are getting busier by the day and shops and government institutions are slowly returning to work. Apart from the joy and relief, the mundane but vital work of making a country function is job number one for many. Simona Foltyn reports on that huge task and the mess the Assad family left behind.
