What Damascus Airport is Concealing
Damascus is preparing to convert the Mazzah Military Airport into a private aviation investment hub, amid concerns about the possible erasure of criminal evidence related to mass graves located within the airport. Leak documents from the Syrian Air Intelligence revealed that the airport had been used since 2012 to carry out secret executions of detainees, with plans to transfer execution activities from Sednaya Prison to the airport as part of a covert security system, including the establishment of a designated site for executions inside it. Investigations estimate that more than 1,150 detainees died there as a result of executions, torture, or mistreatment, with evidence pointing to locations of mass graves connected to the airport. There are calls to prevent any excavation work that could damage evidence of the killings. This development comes amidst ongoing human rights concerns, as the project risk erasing evidence of previous regime abuses.
