A man, named as Ahmad Marwan al Nabelsi, was killed on February 13, 2021, when a landmine of unknown origin in the vicinity of the Tafas city in the eastern suburbs of Daraa governorate. SNHR is still trying to contact witnesses to obtain more details of the incident.
SNHR calls on the controlling forces in each area to bear responsibility for protecting civilians in the areas under their control, to reveal the sites of all landmines planted there and to remove them. We have documented hundreds of deaths and injuries resulting from landmine explosions, which will continue to constitute a real threat to people, particularly children, for several years to come.
