TL;DR Summary

Ten years after the deadly chemical attack in Ghouta, Syria, survivors and witnesses still vividly remember the horror of that night. The attack, which killed hundreds of people, including many children, was confirmed by the United Nations to have involved the use of sarin gas. Despite overwhelming evidence, Syrian President Bashar Assad and his Russian allies continue to deny responsibility, blaming opposition forces instead. The pursuit of accountability for Assad's actions is crucial, but it has taken a backseat to diplomatic efforts to reintegrate him into the international community. Without accountability, there is a risk of repeating such mass atrocities in Syria and elsewhere.
