A 13- year-old boy, Maher Malek Nouri Durrah, from al Talhiya village in the northern suburbs of Idlib governorate, was shot dead on June 4, 2020 when snipers affiliated with Syrian regime forces opened fire against a gathering of civilians working on harvesting crops of their agricultural lands on the vicinity of Iffes village in the eastern suburbs of Idlib governorate. SNHR confirms that these lands are owned by civilians and free of any military equipment.
Syrian regime forces have committed a violation of international humanitarian law through this indiscriminate killing and the perpetrator must be held accountable.
