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.
he wanted to make a difference to those that couldn’t escape.
he was lured under false pretense.
at this point anyone wanting to make this a better world where we can live in peace and equality has to make a choice.
you either kill the oppression or they kill you.
I’m getting too old for this shit.
