Syrian rebels free prisoners from Assad’s notorious Red Prison underground cells in Sednaya Prison

[u/ControlCAD]

Sednaya prison, Syria’s “human slaughterhouse” fell into the hands of the rebels on Saturday as Bashar al-Assad's rule came to an end.

Fighters freed hundreds of inmates, including women and young children. However subterranean cells were harder to access and break open. Footage from the prison showed rebels breaking doors open and telling inmates they were free.

Thousands were seen leaving the prison, with people screaming in the streets. Many had been in the prison for several years.

Syria’s Sednaya prison was known as a “human slaughterhouse” by Syrians and human rights organisations.

In a 2017 report, Amnesty International concluded that “the Syrian authorities’ violations at Saydnaya amount to crimes against humanity”. “Murder, torture, enforced disappearance and extermination carried out at Saydnaya since 2011 have been perpetrated as part of an attack against the civilian population that has been widespread, as well as systematic, and carried out in furtherance of state policy,” the human rights group said.
