Syrian nationals who fled to the UK during the civil war said they planned to return home as they celebrated the fall of president Bashar Al Assad’s regime. A crowd of jubilant demonstrators gathered in Piccadilly Circus, central London, chanting and waving Syrian flags. Alhakim Marwan, 66, who fled Syria for the UK in 2012 with his wife and son, said he “will not forget what the UK has done for them” as he is planning to go back to Syria.
