Hassan Soheili: 我的儿子十二年前在阿勒颇到大马士革的路上被政府军抓走了，至今下落不明。我非常想去监狱看看他是否被释放，如果没被释放，我不知道他在哪里，我感到非常无助和担忧。 Sara Abdulhamid Al-Ami: 我在医院太平间外寻找我失踪的四个兄弟，他们都被指控为恐怖分子，在上班途中被抓走。我翻遍了所有贴出的照片，但没有找到他们。他们什么都没做，却遭受了这样的对待，我感到非常绝望和痛苦。 Abdullah Fadl: 我自己在1992年到2000年之间坐了九年牢，亲身经历了叙利亚的政治压迫。我从未想过能看到今天这样的景象，人们敢于公开悼念像Mazen Hamada这样的人权倡导者，这简直难以置信。这次游行象征着人民的团结和对自由的渴望，尽管Hamada已经去世，但他仍然是所有受难者的象征。
