AGPS has launched on online portal providing free access to data and statistics about Palestinian prisoners forcibly disappeared by the Syrian regime.
This comes following hundreds of emails and appeals by prisoners’ families seeking to identify their relatives’ conditions and whereabouts after they have been unaccounted for for years.
AGPS calls on Palestinian refugee families in Syria to register the names of their missing relatives on its official website.
On Thursday, the Guardian published a footage showing a massacre taking place in Tadamon, near Syria’s capital Damascus, in April 2013, and claiming the lives of 41 people, including three Palestinian refugees.
The three refugees are Wasim Omar Seyam, Sa’id Ahmad Khatab, Abd Luay AlKubra, residents of Yarmouk Camp, south of Damascus. The piece published by the Guardian was called “Massacre in Tadamon: how two academics hunted down a Syrian war criminal,” and written by Middle East correspondent Martin Chulov.
The British newspaper reported that the mass grave contained at least 41 bodies following the massacre. The bodies were then doused with fuel and set alight. In the video footage, soldiers could be heard laughing. The massacre took place just a few miles from Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s seat of power.
