For Syrian Hadi al Khatib, his life's mission is to find evidence of crimes by Bashar al-Assad regime on the Internet. With his fellow Syrian refugees, they set up the Syrian Archive in Berlin to do just that. Only they have a big problem. The evidence is evaporating before your very eyes.

This video is part of an episode of 'In Europe, history caught in the act' with Geert Mak by Stefanie de Brouwer and Roel van Broekhoven.
