Lebanon Syrian Detainees Forgotten Behind Bars

Beirut, Lebanon (HRNW)- Dozens of Syrians who opposed the Assad regime remain imprisoned in Lebanese facilities, many without trial. Despite changes in Syria’s political landscape, Lebanon has stalled on repatriation talks, leaving detainees in overcrowded cells with limited food and medical access. Human rights lawyers describe the situation as a “legal black hole,” calling for immediate international intervention.
