Sednaya Prison, located just north of the Syrian capital, is one of the most infamous prisons in the country. Dubbed “the slaughterhouse," over 13,000 people were killed in the prison since the start of the revolution in 2011. On December 8, following the fall of the al-Assad regime, thousands of political prisoners were liberated by opposition forces, recounting tales of torture and fear. In the days following the momentous occasion, families of missing loved ones rushed to the prison to check on the fate of their family members.
