On 5 Oct, #Syria held its first parliamentary #elections since regime change — the vote entrenched executive control.

🚨To every @UN agency operating in Syria:
If you don’t act now, you are not just failing in your mandate, you are aiding the collapse of civilian life in Suwayda.
Where are you @UNICEF @WHO @UNOCHA @mohammed_mudawi ?

كذابين ..
نفس الاشخاص الذين صوروا انفسهم في الساحل والذين ارتكبوا المجازر هناك ،، ذهبوا الو السويداء
لماذا لم تحاسبوهم سابقا ؟؟
لماذا لم يخرج تبريركم الى الان ؟؟
لمن توجهون هذا البيان ؟؟ هل تعتقدون بان العالم لا يرى ولا يسمع ؟؟
هل تعتقدون بان اموال الخليج ودعمه لكم سيجعل العالم يصمت ؟؟
الى اين تقودون سوريا ؟؟ لقد وصلتم بها للهاوية
ماذا تريدون فعلا ؟؟؟
ضبوا الشنط وارحلوا سريعا
ودعونا ننقذ ما يمكن انقاذه من هذا الوطن
وجودكم عار
وتاريخكم عار وخصوصا بحق اهل الثورة السورية

Non-HTS government members are visiting the victims of the church bombing in Damascus, mourning those who passed away. HTS members, including the President, are not (at least not mourning). There may be religious explanations for that, but the fact that at a moment as dramatic as when death occurs, the Syrian president differentiates between his citizens, depending on their religious affiliation, will be troubling for many. Unlikely that this goes without a political cost, however small the Christian community is in Syria.

From a Bond villain lair in the rugged heights overlooking Damascus, the all-seeing eye of a notorious Syrian military unit gazed down on a city it bled dry.

After over two months of work, I hope my latest @AFP piece provides a comprehensive insight into the economic empire of Maher al-Assad's Fourth Division.
How the man many called "The Master" and his cronies wallowed in immense wealth while some of their foot soldiers struggled to feed their families and even begged on the streets.
The report wouldn't have happened without the long hours spent roaming around Damascus and other areas, stopping at abandoned 4th Division bases and checkpoints with @BakrAlkasem, the long conversations brainstorming with @LayalAFP, @alicehackman and my editor @FiachraGibbons
Most documents were seen scattered among piles of broken furniture or left damp and dirty in looted bases.
Did @cnnipr and @clarissaward find a detainee who was somehow 'forgotten' after the prison was liberated in #Damascus #Syria?
If CNN or the guards staged this encounter, they are exploiting the suffering of former detainees merely for more views

"Syria is free."
Extraordinary moment as @clarissaward and her team witness a Syrian prisoner freed from a secret prison in Damascus.
Left alone for days without food, water or light, the man was unaware Bashar al-Assad's regime had fallen.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Verify-Sy, a Syrian fact checking group, now says that this man is Air Force Intelligence First Lieutenant Salama Mohammad Salama, notorious for extortion and theft in Homs, who had been arrested due to disputes with his colleagues about profit sharing.

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.
While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change.
And they’re right.
Some vloggers like @Drewbinsky have promoted #Syria as a tourist destination!
This only spreads the #SyrianGovernment's lies and contributes to the false narrative that "Syria is a safe country."

Keeping my memories with me from Syria to Lebanon, later to the US, was more of a personal thing, but having it used in justice proceedings 19 years later in the US is something I never expected.
I'm very grateful for all the efforts my colleagues at the Syria Justice and Accountability Centre @SJAC_info have put into this case, and looking forward to the trial.

Today, I'm using these against him in a trial in the US! With one difference—he will have a fair trial, and I did not; I had a military court trial for no apparent reason, although I was a 21-year-old civilian.
