The decision now rests with investigating magistrates on whether to issue the new warrant.
US intelligence reports indicate the attack killed over 1,000 people in Adra and Douma, near Damascus, on August 4–5, 2013.
However, the court noted that since Assad was ousted in December, new warrants could be pursued.
Assad and his family reportedly fled to Russia after Islamist-led forces took control in Syria on December 8.
A separate French arrest warrant was issued in January for Assad’s alleged involvement in a 2017 bombing in Deraa that killed a French-Syrian civilian. – AFP
