The head of Syria's Civil defence, also known as the White Helmets, Raeed al-Salah, has vowed to hold ousted President Bashar al-Assad accountable for crimes and violations committed during his rule.
“Today, I promise you from in front of the Palace of Justice, not from anywhere else, to work with all legal institutions to hold the head of the regime accountable after all these violations,” Salah said in a video address to the families of the victims and survivors of Assad's regime in front of the Palace of Justice in Damascus.
