Photojournalist Salwan Georges on capturing the fall of Syria's Assad
The people of Syria had almost lost hope before the sudden fall of dictator Bashar al-Assad, so today "hope is a new thing for them". That's the sentiment of an Iraqi-born internationally recognised photojournalist who grew up in Syria and returned there when the Assad regime fell in December 2024 to capture the fighting and its aftermath. Salwan Georges is a photojournalist for The Washington Post, and his work inside Syria is currently on display at the Visa pour l'Image photojournalism festival in the southern French city of Perpignan. He spoke to us in Perspective.
