Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #974 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY, December 31, 2024: ‘THE DISAPPEARED: Syria’s Sad Search’ Pictures by 4 time Pulitzer Prize winning ZUMA Press photographer Carol Guzy: Desperate family members search for their disappeared loved ones at the Moujtahed hospital morgue among bodies of prisoners recovered from the notorious Sednaya prison and other military intelligence branch jails that showed signs of torture and malnutrition during a brutal regime in Damascus Syria in December 2024. A whirlwind rebel offensive led by the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham ousted President Bashar al-Assad. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights estimates more than 100,000 people died in Syrian prisons and now most families will be denied the closure of a proper burial. They go from prison to prison, and hospital morgues, wishing for even just bones to bury. ‘Even we accept the skeletons,’ say the mothers. Welcome to: ‘THE DISAPPEARED: Syria’s Sad Search’
