The Tadamon massacre, filmed in 2013 and revealing the execution of 41 men, has sparked renewed outrage following the release of Fadi Saqr, a former Assad regime soldier. Saqr, who led a paramilitary group responsible for these killings, was released by Syria's Committee for Civil Peace as part of a reconciliation effort. This decision has angered many Syrians seeking justice, as discussions around transitional justice remain complicated amid continued impunity for past atrocities. Activists argue such releases undermine the hope for addressing historical injustices in the region.
