Bashar al-Assad's British wife, Asma al-Assad, is reportedly gravely ill with leukemia and has been given a ’50/50’ chance of survival. She is currently in isolation at a Moscow hospital, according to sources close to the family. ‘Asma is dying,’ a source who has spoken directly to the family in recent weeks told The Telegraph. ‘She can't be in the same room with anyone [because of her condition].’ Asma al-Assad reportedly fled to Moscow weeks before her husband to receive cancer treatment, before the Syrian regime fell earlier this month. Diagnosed with leukemia in May, Ms. Assad is believed to have experienced a relapse after a brief remission, according to The Telegraph. Sources told the outlet that the 49-year-old is now seeking to leave Moscow, as her health condition ‘cannot be adequately monitored’ there. #news #syria #moscwo #basharalassad
