— 🇺🇸/🇸🇾/🇸🇾NEW: CNN admits that the 'prisoner' that was 'freed' by their norotiously fake reporter Clarissa Ward was actually an intelligence officer in Assad's government who was arrested less than 1 month ago over a dispute with his superior over money (allegedly)
CNN initially claimed that the man was a 'victim of the Syrian regime' who had been imprisoned in solitary confinement for more than 3 years in Sednaya prison.
Syrian locals say they know the man, whose name is Salama, and that he was an intelligence officer known for 'extorting' locals (i.e. low level corruption), and that he was likely imprisoned for this abuse of power by the Assad government.

He adds: "Telegram has become my primary news source." You may recall that, back when Facebook started changing WhatsApp’s terms of service, a number of news outlets reported on, and even recommended, switching to Telegram. Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp. It is unclear who runs the account, although Russia's official Ministry of Foreign Affairs Twitter account promoted the Telegram channel on Saturday and claimed it was operated by "a group of experts & journalists." Now safely in France with his spouse and three of his children, Kliuchnikov scrolls through Telegram to learn about the devastation happening in his home country. Telegram has become more interventionist over time, and has steadily increased its efforts to shut down these accounts. But this has also meant that the company has also engaged with lawmakers more generally, although it maintains that it doesn’t do so willingly. For instance, in September 2021, Telegram reportedly blocked a chat bot in support of (Putin critic) Alexei Navalny during Russia’s most recent parliamentary elections. Pavel Durov was quoted at the time saying that the company was obliged to follow a “legitimate” law of the land. He added that as Apple and Google both follow the law, to violate it would give both platforms a reason to boot the messenger from its stores.
