Syrian Rebels Pledge Justice for Assad's Prison Atrocities

Syrian rebel leader Abu Mohammed al-Jolani has vowed to hold accountable those involved in human rights abuses under President Bashar Assad's regime, following the rebels' victory after 14 years of civil war. Jolani's forces, part of the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham group, are working to establish control in Syria and have offered amnesty to conscripted military personnel, while promising "just punishment" for war criminals. Assad has fled to Russia, where he has been granted asylum by President Putin, as the rebels continue to free prisoners from notorious facilities like Saydnaya prison.
