Recognizing Death of Majd Kamalmaz in Syria

Recognizing Death of Majd Kamalmaz in Syria

Today we honor Majd Kamalmaz, an American who died while being held in Syria.  He traveled to the region to provide medical services to those traumatized by the Syrian civil war and was last seen at a Syrian government checkpoint in 2017.  The Syrian government must answer for what happened to Majd.

We support Majd’s family and the families of all those who are missing or unjustly detained in Syria in their quest for accountability.  Even as we pay tribute to Majd today, we will keep fighting for all Americans held hostage or wrongfully detained abroad.
