Syria's rebels have announced their intention to release a list of senior Assad regime officials wanted for torture. This move comes after decades of authoritarian rule by the Assad family, marked by widespread reports of human rights abuses including mass incarceration, torture, and extra-judicial killings.
The rebel coalition, led by Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), stated that they will unveil 'List no. 1' containing the names of the most senior officials implicated in the torture of Syrian civilians. HTS leader, Ahmed Al Sharaa, also known as Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, emphasized their commitment to holding accountable those responsible for atrocities against the Syrian people.
