Who is Saed Abd al-Aal, the commander of the murderous pro-Assad militia who showed Catherine Connolly around Yarmouk camp?
Why did she never mention 'facts' about him & the slaughter of Palestinians there on her return?

The FPM was instrumental in imposing a years-long starvation siege of the Palestinian camp.
One member under al-Aal's command, Mofeq al-Daouah, was accused of multiple counts of rape & of a massacre when he fired a rocket into a crowd of residents queuing for aid & imprisoned for life in Germany.
