Alarm as Syria Plans Private Jet Hub on Former Torture Site The Syrian government's plan to transform Mezzeh military airport in Damascus into a private jet hub has sparked widespread concern among human rights groups.
The site, once home to notorious detention facilities operated by the Assad regime, is now set to be redeveloped with luxury aviation facilities.
For decades, Air Force Intelligence agents used Mezzeh as a hub for torture, enforced disappearance, and extrajudicial killings.
