Will Syrian war criminals ever face justice?

Tadamon Syria Massacre

After an alleged war criminal was set free, Syrians are questioning whether their new interim government genuinely wants justice after 14 years of civil war.

The gruesome video first made global headlines three years ago. At around six minutes long, the film clip, leaked by a former militiaman loyal to deposed Syrian dictator Bashar Assad, showed the massacre of at least 41 men.

Blindfolded, they were coaxed, pushed, or forced into a mass grave, where they fell onto the corpses of those who’d been killed before them, before being shot themselves.
