Anti-government protests in southern Syria have stretched into a second week, with demonstrators waving the colorful flag of the minority Druze community, burning banners of President Bashar Assad's government and at one point raiding several offices of his ruling party. The protests were initially driven by surging inflation and the war-torn country's spiraling economy but quickly shifted focus, with marchers calling for the fall of the Assad government. For in--depth analysis and a deeper perspective on the demonstrators' rage and demand for change, FRANCE 24's Mark Owen is joined by Celine Kassem, Human rights activist and Media Executive for the Syrian Emergency Task Force.
