During the 13-year civil war in Syria, the forces loyal to ousted President Bashar al-Assad carried out some of the most horrific chemical attacks in recent history. One of them was in April 2018, in Douma, on the outskirts of Damascus. The memory of the 2018 chemical attack continues to be on the minds of residents. They say the wounds have not healed, and that no real justice has been served.
