Vărul fostul președinte sirian Bashar al-Assad a fost condamnat la moarte pentru crime de război și crime împotriva umanității

Wassim al-Assad, a prominent figure in the Syrian regime and cousin of former president Bashar al-Assad, has been sentenced to death by a Damascus court for war crimes. The court found him guilty of multiple offenses, including murder and torture during the Syrian civil war. This ruling is significant as it marks the first time a member of the Assad family has been tried and convicted in Syria. Bashar and Maher al-Assad were sentenced in absentia a week earlier while in exile. Wassim faced various charges, including leading paramilitary groups and military operations against civilians, but was acquitted of drug trafficking due to lack of evidence. His conviction reflects ongoing judicial efforts to address war crimes in Syria since the regime's fall.
