In a special briefing, Stuart Jones, acting assistant secretary of state for the Middle East, released the information, citing human rights groups, NGOs and intelligence sources. He also distributed pictures of the site.<\/p>\n

Some 50 prisoners a day are executed at Sedenya, which Amnesty International has called a \u201chuman slaughterhouse\u201d where thousands have been taken for execution.<\/p>\n

Jones also said Assad\u2019s supporters, Iran and Russia, are not interfering with the operation.<\/p>\n

Russia \u201chas either aided in or passively looked away as the regime\u201d carried out mass murder and other war crimes such as attacking medical facilities and using chemical weapons on the civilian population.<\/p>\n

Jones told reporters that Secretary of State Tillerson has warned Russia to \u201cexercise its great influence\u201d over Assad to end the atrocities.<\/p>\n
