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.

    Seriously this world is fucked up.

    • Fuck Assad and its regime.
    • Fuck Israel and its regime.
    • Fuck the West and its enabling of genocide.
    • Fuck US for enabling genocide.
    • Fuck the Arab countries for doing nothing and having shit on human rights.

    Instead of going forward, we seem to going backward. We haven’t learnt a thing of the past and just repeating the insanity of it.
