Russian state news agencies say ousted Syrian leader Bashar Assad is in Moscow and given asylum
The Syrian government collapsed to a lightning rebel offensive that sent crowds into the streets to celebrate the end of the Assad family's 50 years of iron rule.
The Russian agencies, Tass and RIA, cited an unidentified Kremlin source on Assad and his family being given asylum in Moscow, his longtime ally and protector. The Associated Press was not immediately able to verify the reports but contacted the Kremlin for comment.
RIA also said Moscow had received guarantees from Syrian insurgents of the security of Russian military bases and diplomatic posts in Syria.
Assad reportedly left Syria early Sunday, and Syrians have been pouring into streets echoing with celebratory gunfire after a stunning rebel advance reached the capital, ending the Assad family’s 50 years of iron rule.

The only way to know for sure will be if he actually shows up on camera in the next couple of weeks. If not, he's probably dead.

He would be on camera already if he was in Moscow.
Someone would have captured footage of it and leaked it on line.
