Bashar al-Assad and his family appear to be facing a new crisis after fleeing to Russia.
Assad's wife, Esma Esad, is believed to be filing for divorce from the former Syrian president.
It is quite possible that Esma Esad did not like the living conditions in Moscow, writes CNN Türk .
The authors of the article claim that she plans to move to London.
London-born Esma Esad, who left a banking career, is now unhappy with her living conditions in Moscow.
She asked for a divorce in order to leave for the UK.
Bashar al-Assad appears to be barred from leaving the country.
Although Bashar al-Assad's request for asylum was accepted by Russia, he may not be able to leave Russian territory.
Sources also say that Bashar al-Assad's access to assets and money may be restricted. This situation also affects the decision-making of the Assad family.
