Unveiling Syria's Dark Prisons: From Sednaya's Secrets to Liberation Celebrations

Hayat Tahrir al-Sham militants have taken control of Syria's notorious Sednaya prison, freeing thousands of detainees, many of whom were political prisoners under Bashar al-Assad's regime. The White Helmets are investigating reports of hidden cells, though conflicting accounts exist. Sednaya, infamous for systematic torture and executions, has been a symbol of Assad's brutality since the Syrian uprising in 2011. Amnesty International and other rights groups have documented its history of abuse, with calls for international justice continuing.
