The complaint was submitted by a French lawyer on behalf of the French-Alawi Assembly, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

 Sources from the Observatory reported that the complaint targets members of the interim Syrian government led by Ahmad al-Shara, including Minister of Defense Marhaf Abu Qasra, Minister of Interior Anas Khattab, and Mohammad al-Jassem, known as "Abu Amsha."

 This marks the first legal action of its kind in France against figures from the Syrian conflict.
