CultureConcerts by pro-Assad singers cancelled in Syria

Syria cancelled this summer’s concerts by several singers accused of backing deposed president Bashar al-Assad’s regime. In Homs, people tore down posters promoting performances by Mohamad Iskandar and Hossam Jneed, denouncing their past ties to the regime. One musician later apologised publicly.
