Redirect from folder to root

I would like to move all content from /downloads/assets/ folder to /downloads/ folder.

How do I add redirect for /downloads/assets/{anystring} to /downloads/{anystring}?

Now I manually add every redirect like this:

RewriteRule ^downloads/assets/views?$ /downloads/views [L]

But it's a dream job. Can we use variables instead?

Spend some time with the RewriteRule documentation, as this is a very rudimentary usage. You will need to capture everything after assets/ in (.*) and rewrite it as $1.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^downloads/assets/(.*) downloads/$1 [L]

The above will perform a silent internal rewrite. If you need to redirect the browser rather than silently rewrite, use [L,R=301] instead of [L].
