Many from ethnic minorities are fleeing Syria after Bashar al-Assad’s brutal regime was deposed on the weeekend

So whom exactly was this regime brutal to? Majority, while supporting minorities? This seems like the same nonsense as with Xinjiang propaganda where the alleged extermination of Uyghurs and sinicizing them into Han culture resulted with great increasing of the Uyghur population not only in absolute numbers but also % in relation to Han population.
