Syrian Alawite clerics demand amnesty after fall of Assad government

“What our country has gone through with painful events in the past period has led to great pains and losses in lives and properties, affecting all categories of the Syrian people.”

Leading Alawite clerics in Syria have released a statement calling for a comprehensive amnesty that includes all members of Syrian society without exception, following the fall of the Assad government on Sunday.

An estimated two to three million Alawites live in Syria and Alawites held key roles in Syria’s military and government under the Assad family’s rule.
The clerics also demanded the return of all displaced persons to their homes in Syria.
