A graffiti artist in Syria's Idlib is painting the walls of buildings damaged by airstrikes to show solidarity with murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi and other reporters who have shared the same fate.For the past two years, Aziz Asmar, a 35-year-old resident of Idlib's Binnish district, has also painted images of the years-long Syria conflict, Palestine, and other issues of regional and international concern.Asmar's latest mural depicts the death of Khashoggi, who was last seen alive after entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on Oct. 2.
