Thousands of #Afghans who assisted US forces are stuck in limbo in Qatar. Instead of promised resettlement in America, they could face an uncertain future in another war-torn country. My latest.

Three months later, this is my last @washingtonpost story — delayed because nearly everyone involved in it was laid off. I am very grateful to newsroom friends who made sure it published anyway, and to brave Roman Mongold and his family for their time.

The happiness is literally eternal. Gaza's streets are erupting. The tears of everyone, the joy.

Hi European populist politicians, you want to push Syrian refugees back to these homes while foreign powers are still bombing and no one knows how and who will be governing the various regions of the country? It would be cruel and reckless. Those who can will voluntarily return.

Thousands ascended the hill to Sednaya Prison yesterday in search of loved ones taken by the Assad regime. They poured over prison records and pulled apart the concrete of “Assad’s slaughterhouse” looking for a second prison underground, but in vain.

Having covered the toppling of Saddam, Gaddafi & Taliban regime & witnessed the jubilation followed by chaos and bloodshed, I really hope Syria will be different. And as one Syrian Kurdish friend said to me ‘today is a time for celebration - tomorrow we can worry…’
This morning's paper. Assad's regime literally fell right when these were distributed. The news have unfolded so rapidly fast; the situation in #Syria is developing by the minute.
