Biden monitoring 'extraordinary events' in Syria, White House says

U.S. President Joe Biden is keeping a close eye on "extraordinary events" transpiring in Syria, the White House said late Saturday, after a war monitor said President Bashar al-Assad fled the country and rebels declared they had taken the capital.

"President Biden and his team are closely monitoring the extraordinary events in Syria and staying in constant touch with regional partners," National Security Council spokesman Sean Savett said in a statement on social media.
