Summary
Syrian activist Mazen Al-Hamada, known for exposing Assad regime atrocities, was found dead in Saydnaya prison in Damascus.
Once a symbol of resilience, Al-Hamada had endured imprisonment and torture before seeking asylum in the Netherlands in 2014.
He became a leading voice for Syrian detainees, recounting his trauma to raise awareness.
Al-Hamada returned to Syria in 2020, reportedly lured by regime promises of safety, but disappeared soon after.
His death has sparked calls for justice and renewed focus on the plight of thousands still detained under Assad’s rule.
Do you normally state things that have happened as if you are revealing something new to the world?
When speaking to you guys, i find it is helpful to state the obvious because it so often escapes your notice.
