Summary

On the Sky News Daily, Darren McCaffrey is joined by chief correspondent Stuart Ramsay to hear what the reaction has been on the streets of Damascus to the toppling of President Bashar al Assad's regime.

Plus, with Assad gone, Stuart discusses what further brutal aspects of his regime are now being uncovered, including at Sednaya prison.
