Bashar al-Assad’s wife, Asma al-Assad, is in critical condition with leukemia and has a 50/50 chance of recovery, sources close to the family say.

Asma reportedly left Syria and arrived in Moscow before the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime earlier this month to undergo treatment. However, according to sources, her health has deteriorated and she is likely planning to leave Russia as she is not receiving sufficient medical supervision.

According to the British newspaper Telegraph, the condition of 49-year-old Asma raises serious concerns. Her father, a doctor from London, came to Moscow specifically to look after her. Leukemia, diagnosed in May, has returned after a period of remission, sources said.

The situation is extremely difficult, said an insider familiar with the family. According to him, Asma is in isolation due to her high vulnerability to infections.

To minimize the risk of complications, the former first lady limited contact with people. She has been in the Russian capital for several weeks, where she is receiving medical care. However, the current course of treatment does not bring the expected results, which raises new questions about Asma Assad’s future plans.
