A Syrian Woman Who Lost Five of Her Six Brothers to War Is Campaigning for Justice for Detainees
The fifth brother to be taken from us was Okba. I tried to save him. We waited during the bombing for him. We visited authorities, we wrote letters, we spoke to anyone who might have seen him or stayed with him in detention. Nothing. We still do not really know the truth of what happens inside the Syrian regime’s detention centers. Day after day, we find ourselves unable to save our detainees.
