DAMASCUS: The leader of Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham confirmed on Wednesday that the militants did not receive any international support to confront former President Bashar Assad’s government.

HTS’ leader Abu Mohammed Al-Golani, now using his real name Ahmed Al-Sharaa, said that the weapons they fought the Assad government with were manufactured locally, according to Al Arabiya news channel. 

He added: “The Syrian people are exhausted from years of conflict, and the country will not witness another war.”

Those responsible for killing Syrians, and security and army officers in the former administration involved in torturing will be held accountable by the Military Operations Department, said Al-Sharaa.

He said in a statement: “We will pursue the war criminals and demand them from the countries to which they fled so that they may receive their just punishment.”

The leader confirmed that “a list containing the names of the most senior people involved will be announced.”

He added that “rewards will also be offered to anyone who provides information about senior army and security officers involved in war crimes.”

Al-Sharaa said that the military leadership is “committed to tolerance for those whose hands are not stained with the blood of the Syrian people,” adding that it granted amnesty to those in compulsory service.
