Survivors Share Harrowing Tales from Assad's Torture Prisons
Former inmates of Syria's notorious Saydnaya prison, recently freed by rebels, recount harrowing experiences of torture, abuse, and inhumane conditions. Known as the "human slaughterhouse," the prison held political prisoners and opponents of the Assad regime, who were subjected to brutal punishments and forced confessions. The fall of Assad's government led to their release, marking a moment of profound relief and disbelief for the survivors, who describe their freedom as a rebirth after years of unimaginable suffering.
