Ten years since the start of the war and things in Syria have never been worse.
Millions have been internally displaced or have sought refuge in neighbouring countries. Cities and historic sites lie in ruins.
So who’s still fighting who in Syria? Can its people ever return home? And is there an end in sight?

  • Syria has a special place in my heart because of the help Syrians gave to Greek refugees, including my father, and because of all the lovely Syrian people I have met these last few years. It is so sad that even still, today, Syrians are unsafe in their own country.
  • Sadly no one will pay for all the innocent people killed in this shameful war, not in this life.

    “The level of humanitarian suffering in Syria is just beyond imagination.” I’m Syrian, i was 9 when the Arab Spring started.. I remember watching the news with my family and following all the updates, I remember my father recording Hosni Mubarak's resignation statement live from the TV, and the breaking news about Mu'ammar Al-Qadhdhāfī’s assassination, we had high hopes as a family who was involved in politics and never liked the government in Syria, and I thought that what was starting to happen in Syria was going to end the same ways that in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya were ended.. but it didn’t, it actually didn’t end at all.. after the March of 2011 nothing was like before, even the air smell changed.. all we saw back then was nations getting liberated, little did we know that the future wasn't going to hold the same high hopes as it did back then.. now i’m 19 in diaspora, missing my father and my family, praying for my Syria and the rest of world..

    Syria is a testing ground for different types of weapons, from drones and missiles to chemical weapons. All nations are interested in the war in Syria - Europe , Turkey , Iran, Israel , Russia , USA...

    I've been waiting for this follow up documentary about Syria
  • @trj1442
    Whenever I feel suicidal living modestly in a western country in these crazy pandemic days I use Syrians as my denominator that life as I know is not so bad. Particularly all the poor innocent Syrian children caught up in all this bullshit.

    “There are hundreds of thousands of US soldiers too.. protecting oil fields” (frog emoji)
  • @areshashah1584
    Everytime I watch anything related to Syria. It breaks my heart. It's always the people who suffer.
  • @science8685
    We should pray God peacefull for Syrian people😔
  • @paulskiye6930
    "Hundreds of US soldiers are there too, mainly to protect the oilfields." The whole reason this war started..
  • @nagham8800

  • It is events like these that make fictional villians like Thanos seem reasonable in their pessimism towards life on Earth
