Syria's new authorities open to investigate Assad war crimes: UN probe team

The UN's International, Impartial, and Independent Mechanism for Syria (IIIM) visited Damascus, finding Syrian authorities receptive to collaboration. The IIIM aims to investigate war crimes and gather evidence before it's destroyed. They're preparing for deployment to secure sites and documents related to atrocities committed during Assad's rule, focusing on the fate of over 130,000 missing persons. The IIIM stressed the need for a collective effort to ensure justice for victims.
