Lebanon detains ex-Syrian officer over crimes against humanity

Lebanese authorities have arrested Major General Adel Issa, former commander of the 17th Division of the Syrian Army, upon his arrival at the Syrian Embassy in Beirut to carry out an administrative procedure. The arrest is related to accusations involving murder, torture, and crimes against humanity committed during the Syrian civil war years. This is the first time a former Syrian officer has been detained in Lebanon, and it comes as part of an increasing judicial and security cooperation between Beirut and Damascus to pursue former officials accused of abuses against Syrians. Lebanese judiciary is currently investigating the charges against him, with the Syrian case file awaited to make an appropriate decision regarding his extradition to Syrian authorities.
