We strongly condemn the atrocities depicted in a recently released video , which appears to show blindfolded , unarmed civilians being shot point - blank by an Assad regime official before falling into a mass grave in Tadamon , Syria , during a 2013 massacre that reportedly killed hundreds of Syrian civilians . The video , which suggests additional evidence of war crimes committed by the Assad regime , is yet another harrowing example of the horrors that the Syrian people have endured for more than a decade . The State Department commends and continues to support the brave individuals who work to bring Assad and his regime to justice , often at the risk of their own lives . This includes the vital work of Syrian civil society organizations to document violations of the law of armed conflict as well as human rights abuses and violations and their efforts to advance transitional justice . The United States government remains firmly committed to securing accountability for the atrocities the Assad regime continues to inflict upon Syrians . Accountability and justice for the crimes , violations , and abuses committed against Syrians are essential to a stable , just , and enduring peace in Syria and the region .
