Sunday newspaper round-up: Al-Assad, Argentina, Aviva

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's regime appeared to collapse on Sunday morning, after rebels entered the capital Damascus. Assad's whereabouts are not clear but Moscow or Tehran are possibilities. One source told Reuters that Assad's plane disappeared off the radar when it was headed towards the country's coastal region. It made an abrupt turn before vanishing from the map. The pilot may have turned off the transponder but it's more likely that it was shot down.
