A number of conscripts affiliated with the pro-regime Palestine Liberation Army (PLA) in Syria were released from the Sednaya military prison following a presidential amnesty issued in May.
Since Syria’s conflict began in 2011, Assad has issued similar amnesties, the latest of which came in September 2019. The conflict has killed half a million people and displaced half the country’s prewar population including more than 5 millions who are refugees abroad.
Lists of hundreds of forcibly disappeared Palestinian refugees and victims in Syria are available on AGPS website, both in English and Arabic. AGPS supplies a database of their names and possible times and places of arrest.
AGPS has documented the secret detention of over 1,790 Palestinian refugees, including women and minors, in Syrian government lock-ups.
