Rescue teams work to free prisoners from Sednaya Military Prison in Syria

Emergency teams are working to rescue prisoners from Sednaya Military Prison in Syria, known for severe human rights abuses. Following the recent overthrow of Bashar al-Assad, thousands of inmates have been freed, but many remain trapped in underground cells. Rebels have reported that over 100,000 detainees are still inside the prison. Efforts to access secret cells are ongoing, with fears that some prisoners may be choking due to poor ventilation. The White Helmets are leading the rescue operations. Assad's regime has been accused of executing thousands of prisoners, with rights groups labeling Sednaya a "death camp." The recent fall of Assad's government has sparked celebrations across Syria, as opposition forces take control of key areas.
