Visitors return to Syria's Palmyra after years of war and destructions

After years of war and destruction, Syrians are trying to reclaim their heritage – not least in the ancient city of Palmyra, where night-time tours are now being organised. As FRANCE 24’s Dana Alboz reports, it is a way of reclaiming the country’s history, but also of reviving a site that fell into the hands of the Islamic State group in 2015, where the group committed one of its worst atrocities.
