Controversy over a new account named Asma al-Assad on “X”. Fact or hoax?

A new account on the “X” platform bearing the name of Asma al-Assad, the wife of former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, has sparked widespread controversy over its authenticity, especially since it came days after her son Hafez al-Assad’s account was banned on the same platform.

It was not long before a new account appeared, verified with a blue checkmark, also bearing the name of Hafez al-Assad , which increased the mystery about the source of these accounts and their credibility.

Account Content: Cryptic messages and vague hints The new account began its activity at dawn on Sunday, Beirut time, and published tweets of a poetic nature, most notably: “After a period of silence, it is time to start again. Hope and change never stop, let us start together.” “No matter the challenges, their determination remains stronger than all difficulties. Together we face the future with determination and hope.” “Over the past years, I have always been silent on political issues, and I will not have any involvement in this area in the future.”

The account also tried to beautify Asma al-Assad’s image through statements such as: “Some paths were never my choice.”

He concluded with a cryptic tweet: “There are stages in life that are indelible, that remain stuck in the memory with all their details… Is it time to share them?”, in a vague reference to the possibility of revealing new information.

Is the account real? 5 signs of doubt Despite the great interaction with the account, there is no official or independent confirmation that it is affiliated with Asma al-Assad.

Here are some points that support the hypothesis that it is a fake account or managed by an unofficial entity: 1. The absence of any official confirmation from Asma al-Assad or any member of the Assad family regarding the authenticity of the account. 2. The account was promoted via Telegram by an account allegedly affiliated with Hafez al-Assad, but investigations indicated that this account is not the same account that published details of the Assad family’s escape from Damascus a few days ago. 3. The original account of Hafez al-Assad, which previously published videos explaining his official accounts, is completely different from the account that began marketing this new account of Asma al-Assad. 4. Even Hafez al-Assad’s new account on “X”, although verified, has not been officially confirmed by any reliable source, which raises doubts about the authenticity of the new accounts in general. 5. A recent press report claimed that Asma al-Assad is currently living in complete isolation in one of Moscow’s most prestigious hospitals, reducing the possibility that she is running a new account on X.

With no official announcement or conclusive evidence of the account’s authenticity, the possibility remains that it is a hoax or a propaganda campaign. Are these accounts merely an attempt to re-present the image of the Assad family in light of the current political situation? Or are they simply a tool for spreading rumors and misinformation? The coming days may reveal more details about these mysterious accounts.
