"In his prison in #Saydnaya, even in the simplest things, he tried to keep up with his imagination regarding what he was eating there with the other prisoners."
It was only after Bashar al-Assad was overthrown in December 2024 that the world fully grasped the extent of his brutal treatment of prisoners in #Syria. Now, journalist Laura Silvia Battaglia returns to the notorious #Saydnaya prison with some of its survivors:

If it can be proven that Hassoun was as one of three men, along with #Assad, who signed execution orders for thousands of anti-Assad detainees exterminated at the notorious #Saydnaya Prison, he could face charges of crimes against humanity. #Syria www.newarab.com/news/assads-...
'Because that place, even though it was the place that I was executed in and thought I would die, it was actually the moment when I was freed' #Saydnaya Omar AlShogre www.gqmiddleeast.com/article/one-...
His most vivid memory of #Saydnaya 'Smash of metal on metal means they are executing people..Imagine sitting upstairs knowing prisoners are being executed downstairs'

@UN God, you pathetic bastards!
You are as hated everywhere as the russians

U.N. Special envoy to Syria visit to Saydnaya prison was met with anger by the relatives of the detainees. The special envoy called for "justice and accountability" in the country, rather than acts of revenge following the overthrow of president Assad.
#Syria #Saydnaya #Assad
Ousted Syrian dictator #Assad waited for a week after his flight to Moscow to roll out a pathetic statement. He's so full of himself: a fighter against international terrorism, not a butcher of his people; a patriot, not the Kremlin's dependant. Not a word about #Saydnaya .
The links between German nazis who escaped to Syria and helped Hafez Assad set up #Saydnaya and methods of torture, and Assad's links with the Stasi.

Fact check on some of the misleading photos and claims about #Saydnaya. I did think one of those photos was of a medieval 'oubliette'.

As more is revealed about the notorious #Saydnaya #Prison, it appears the tactics of the former #Assad dictatorship were shaped by #Nazi #warcriminals who fled abroad after World War II, as well as the East German Stasi. p.dw.com/p/4o55j?maca...
That, and the fact that 20% of them had a relative cooling his heels in #saydnaya - some of whom were infants. I made that statistic up. Wonder how far off it is?

In #Damascus we unknowingly walked over the roofs of prisons, unaware of the suffering beneath. Many of our relatives, cousins, and neighbors detained in Assad’s prisons are still missing. Their absence is painful, and we hold onto hope that they are alive.

30.000 prisonniers auraient trouvé la mort dans la prison de #Saydnaya en #Syrie.
Symbole de la répression, elle est prise d’assaut par les familles qui cherchent désespérément des traces de leurs proches.

“That’s my son! That’s my son!” screamed a woman, causing a ripple in the crowd. The mother, Damascus resident Amira Homsi, recognized her son from a pair of star tattoos on his chest…”
A chilling report by @jmalsin from #Saydnaya prison
www.wsj.com/world/middle...
In #Damascus #Syria, political opponents and human rights activists were detained in Al-Khatib jail in a residential neighborhood. Some of them died there, some were sent to #Saydnaya, and some were released... But a lot of torture happened there. And now people are coming to look for documents here
