A report that will be released on Thursday will link the execution, torture, and other forms of mistreatment of more than 1,000 Syrians who perished in captivity at a military airfield outside of Damascus to seven alleged burial sites.
The Syria Justice and Accountability Centre told Reuters in an exclusive report that it used a combination of satellite imagery, witness accounts, and documents taken at the military airport in the Mezzeh suburb of Damascus following the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad in December to identify the grave sites.
A few of the locations were on the airport property. Others were located throughout Damascus.
