Every few months, you hear a new story about someone from the al-Assad clan – but good luck telling who’s who. To shed more light on the better-known Assad kin and their roles in Syria, I built this interactive family tree in collaboration with activists.

In the accompanying report, I argue that the EU and the US are targeting the wrong members of the al-Assad family with sanctions. Some influential players are not sanctioned, while marginal players are. Check out who in this interactive family tree.
