🎗️Hamza Ali Al-Khateeb🎗️ is a Syrian child in the seventh grade from the town of Giza. He was arrested on April 29, 2011 while going to a protest with his family against the siege imposed by the regime on the people of Dara’a. #100faces #9yearsstrong
His body was handed over to his family with marks of torture, cigarette burns, wounds of bullets in his arms and chest, broken bones, a broken neck, and mutilated genitals. Other injuries were consistent with the use of electroshock devices and being whipped with a cable.
Hamza’s death was a catalyst for protests ✊🏼, and the demonstrators organized numerous events to honour him. To this day, he is an icon of the Syrian Revolution, renowned as one of the first martyrs.
He symbolizes the purity of the Syrian people in their strive towards justice and freedom, and the horrific response of the Syrian Regime.
