I watched every video to see my father's face': the woman who became the voice of Syria's missing on why she isn't giving up hope
Briefly

Wafa Mustafa, whose father has been missing in Syrian detention for over a decade, became a prominent figure advocating for those disappeared under the regime. Following the fall of Aleppo prison in December, she watched with disbelief as detainees escaped. Mustafa has tirelessly campaigned, but with the regime's collapse, a new government gives no guidance for families searching for missing loved ones. As many remain unaccounted for in the chaos, Mustafa and others return to Syria, desperate for information about their relatives, with empty detention centers offering little solace amid ongoing uncertainty.
