@thenewsmovement: In 2011, inspired by the uprisings happening across the Middle East during the Arab Spring, Syrians revolted against the country’s leader, Bashar Assad. Assad cracked down on protesters brutally, killing nearly 500,000 people and making nearly 6.8 million Syrians refugees, sparking what continues to be the world’s largest refugee crisis, according to the UN Refugee Agency. Under this brutal regime, the Syrian people have suffered chemical attacks, deep repression, and forced disappearances and human rights groups have named Assad responsible for a litany of crimes against humanity. #assad #syria #homs #damascus #aleppo
