“The explosive barrels that we heard about, I transported them in my truck on the return trip. I’m not a participant in that crime. I was forced to do it. I could not refuse,” says Said, one of the participants in this investigation that shows how Syrian citizens were forced to transport arms, munitions and explosive barrels in their vehicles on behalf of the Syrian army during the war years. But, how did the regime force these people to transport explosive materials and barrels? How many truckloads were transported? What roads did they take? What is the fate of those who refuse to cooperate? What dangers did the drivers face? This investigation tries to answer these questions.
