In December 2024, the IIIM traveled to Syria for the first time since the establishment of its mandate. This significant milestone reflects the willingness of the new authorities to engage with the IIIM’s justice and accountability work.
With the end of Assad’s regime, new evidence of the many violations and crimes has now become accessible. The IIIM stands ready to bring its expertise and resources to ensure that this evidence is preserved and used to support justice opportunities for Syria’s countless victims and survivors.
