WASHINGTON, United States – Syrian blogger, Bassel Khartabil has been beheaded by the regime in Syria. Khartabil was also an activist and web developer.




His execution is seen as one of the the examples of high handedness and extra-judicial murder of the regime.

In a statement, Department of States said the United States is deeply saddened by reports of the execution of the Syrian blogger and activist Bassel Khartabil by the Syrian regime.

“We extend our deepest and heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and loved ones”, the US said in a statement by Heather Nauert.

“The United States expresses its outrage over the repeated acts of brutality, including torture, and extra-judicial executions, conducted by the Syrian regime. The Assad regime bears responsibility for the widespread suffering, death, and destruction it has inflicted on its own citizens”, the statement said, adding that every day, courageous individuals work to recover from the devastation the Syrian regime has wrought, and that the United States will continue to stand with them as Syrians work towards a negotiated political settlement that brings an end to the conflict.
