Syrian officer extradited over war crimes
Lebanon extradited a former Syrian military general to Syria, marking the first such transfer since Bashar al-Assad's regime fell. Maj Gen Adel Issa, accused of war crimes including homicide and torture during the Syrian civil war, was handed over after being detained in Beirut. The extradition follows pressure from Syria's new authorities and is based on a 1951 agreement, with his case now proceeding in Damascus courts.
