RSF calls on Syria’s new authorities to adopt seven priority measures in line with their promises to safeguard press freedom
Abstract
On the first day of 2025, the Information Minister of Syria's new de facto government promised to improve press freedom in the country. Reporters Without Borders (RSF) welcomes this commitment while reminding the authorities of their responsibility for the journalists who were killed, abducted, or who disappeared since the start of the revolution in 2011. RSF calls on this transitional government to immediately implement seven recommendations, starting with the release of the 20 journalists still held by rebel groups.
