After Assad's regime fell, my husband finally revealed his horrific experiences as a political prisoner in the notorious Al-Khatib prison.
Seeing news reports about the prison triggered his confession; he detailed brutal beatings, solitary confinement, and the pervasive torture of fellow inmates.
The conditions were appalling; disease was rampant, and he witnessed many deaths during his month-long detention.
Sharing his trauma brought him a sense of relief, and now, we're determined to help others understand the atrocities committed in Syria.
