Syria has launched a criminal investigation into a mass grave in the Dhumair desert east of Damascus, revealed by a Reuters investigation, linked to the Assad regime’s effort to conceal atrocities.
The site, once a military weapons depot, was used after 2018 to relocate thousands of bodies from graves near Damascus as part of a covert operation known as “Operation Move Earth.” Syrian authorities have secured the site with military personnel, begun forensic surveys, interviewed witnesses, and referred the case to prosecutors.
