A diplomatic advisor to the UAE's president commented on recent developments in the region, describing the current events in Syria as a clear sign of political failure.

The advisor stated, "What the region has experienced in the past 24 hours indicates that it continues to face challenging and tense times."

He emphasized the importance of preventing non-state actors from exploiting the political vacuum and stressed that "defensive and military responsibilities should not fall under the control of armed groups."

The Jordanian News Agency reported that Amman emphasized the importance of maintaining Syria's stability and security amid the rapid developments of recent events.

Jordan urged Syria to restore the functionality of its institutions.

This statement followed an announcement by armed groups in Syria on Sunday morning, declaring their control over the city of Damascus and imposing a ban on approaching government institutions.

PM says ready for turnover process

In turn, Syrian Prime Minister Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali said he was ready to cooperate with any leadership chosen by the Syrian people and affirmed that he is prepared to undertake a handover process, early on Sunday.  

This comes after militants entered Syria's capital, Damascus, and reports of President Bashar al-Assad's leaving the capital to an unknown location at an earlier time. 

Late on Saturday, the Syrian Arab Army withdrew from the city of Homs, where militants took over the city and other towns in western Syria. For the most part, no clashes were recorded before and during the withdrawal of Syrian Arab Army forces and the eventual takeover by militants of Syrian towns. 

Reuters reported, citing two senior Syrian military officials, that al-Assad left Damascus to an unknown location, later reporting that militants had entered the city.
