Syria's embattled President Bashar al-Assad would become the next Middle East dictator to be ousted in the Arab Spring, the country's opposition leaders have predicted.
"They are chanting that this is a day of cheer and hope," a spokesman for the Syrian Revolution General Commission declared late on Thursday, as cited by The Daily Telegraph.
"We are all very happy and we hope that this will happen to Bashar al-Assad next. We hope that the Arab League will help us after this great achievement," he added.
Syrians in the streets said the fall of Libya's late strongman Muammar Gaddafi inspired them to continue demonstrating against the regime, Al Bawaba reports.
Syrian demonstrators chanted slogans and raised banners congratulating the Libyan people and calling President Assad to draw the lessons.
