In Syria, a criminal court affiliated with the transitional Damascus administration established under the leadership of HTS has issued a death sentence for Waseem Assad, a cousin of the country's former president, Bashar al-Assad.

The ruling announced by the Fourth Criminal Court in Damascus stated that Waseem Assad was sentenced to death for "premeditated murder of multiple individuals," "torture," "crimes against humanity," and "war crimes."
