Less than 9 months after the so-called "transitional government" led by Al-Julani assumed power in Syria, the shocking results of what was called “state-building” and addressing the legacy of Assad’s authoritarianism have come to light. Instead of receiving praise from the United Nations and international human rights organizations for its so-called policies, within less than 9 months, dozens of documented UN and international reports have poured in, recording a bloody toll: thousands killed, hundreds kidnapped, grave human rights violations, an economy plundered and run in the shadows, practices undermining the rule of law and monopolizing power, and decisions that entrench sectarianism and reproduce the logic of domination. The expectation was that the fall of Assad’s regime would open a new chapter for a wounded and exhausted Syria. Instead, what emerged was a repetition of patterns of repression, looting, and discrimination, albeit with new tools and new fronts. Reports from the UN Commission of Inquiry (COI), Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, Reuters, and the Syrian Network for Human Rights all stated clearly that what was achieved in less than nine months was not construction but double destruction and a resounding failure. What follows is not analysis, speculation, or criticism, but an official, documented record showing that the “achievements” of this HTS regime, which presents itself, and is marketed by its supporters, as the hope of Syrians, have produced nothing but more bloodshed, violations of dignity, and deepening Syrian wounds. Since the fall of the former regime in December 2024 until September 2025, reports by the UN, human rights organizations, and reputable media have accumulated, presenting a documented picture that places multiple responsibilities by Al-Julani regime: 🔴War crimes in the coast and the south. 🔴Field executions and abductions of women and children. 🔴Recruitment of minors and social exploitation. 🔴Forced evictions and sectarian practices in Damascus and Homs. 🔴Politicization of law and constitutional declaration to entrench power. 🔴Secret restructuring of the economy through patronage networks. 🔴Failure to ensure transparency and accountability.
