Funeral Held For Mazen al-Hamada, Syrian Activist Found Dead At Sednaya Prison

DAMASCUS, SYRIA - DECEMBER 12: People chant as they carry the coffin of Mazen al-Hamada during a funeral for Syrian activist Mazen al-Hamada on December 12, 2024 in Damascus, Syria. Rebel forces who seized the capital this weekend said they found Hamada's body in the morgue at Sednaya prison, where it is assumed he was killed shortly before the prison's liberation and the collapse of the Assad regime. Hamada was detained and tortured during the uprising of 2011 and released in 2013, when he received asylum in the Netherlands. In a development that confused friends and family, he returned to Syria in 2020 and disappeared soon after. (Footage by Chris McGrath/Getty Images)
