Background and career
Wafa Mustafa (b. 1989 or 1990 (age 36–37)) is a Syrian journalist and activist who campaigns for the release of Syrian detainees. As an activist and former member of Families for Freedom, Mustafa has extensively lobbied the United Nations Security Council to call for the release of the names and locations of all those that Syrian authorities have in captivity. She calls for all detainees in Syria to be freed, whether they are held by the Assad regime or by opposition groups, though she also supports the public demonstrations that began in 2011 against the government of Bashar al-Assad.
Mustafa also campaigns for international recognition of Syrian refugees and against normalized international relations with the Assad regime.
