Syrian Activist Yasmen Almashan Joins Transitional Justice Commission to Seek Truth for Disappeared

Yasmen Almashan, who lost five brothers to the Syrian conflict, has joined Syria's National Commission for Transitional Justice to address the fate of over 180,000 disappeared Syrians under Assad's regime. Her appointment represents a direct effort by survivors to lead accountability and reconciliation processes in Syria’s post-war landscape. Moving forward, her role at the UN Women’s Week and within the commission may influence international support and pressure on transitional justice mechanisms in Syria.
