Mass Graves and Torture Unveil Syria's Dark Past
Human remains have been uncovered in the Tadamon district of Damascus, Syria, revealing evidence of mass killings under the rule of Bashar al-Assad. The area became notorious after a 2022 video showed military personnel executing blindfolded men. Residents and rights groups describe years of atrocities, with bones found scattered across the district. Following Assad's ouster, there are calls for the site to be secured and investigated to hold those responsible accountable. The mass grave's potential tampering by Assad's forces raises concerns about preserving evidence.
