Since then, Omar Abou Nabout has sought accountability over his father’s killing while forging a new life in France.
Legal cases have been filed against the Syrian regime before.
The Syrian regime used them extensively, and indiscriminately, in densely populated areas at the height of the civil war, which was considered a form of prohibited indiscriminate attack under international humanitarian law.
It may deny targeting civilians, but Abou Nabout says the new indictments are a victory for him and others fighting impunity.
I was part of it … I watched people die including friends,” Abou Nabout said.
