A man from Ma’dan city in the eastern suburbs of Raqqa governorate, named as Ahmad Abu al Zain, was shot dead on November 9, 2021, by unidentified gunmen in Jazaret al Bouhmaid village in the western suburbs of Deir Ez-Zour suburbs which is controlled by Syrian Democratic Forces. SNHR is still trying to contact witnesses to obtain more details of the incident.
SNHR condemns all attacks of this nature which target and kill civilians and calls on the governing forces in each area to bear responsibility for protecting civilians in the areas under their control, and to conduct investigations into all such incidents and reveal their findings to the public. Stability will not be achieved in Syria without achieving a political transition towards democracy implemented according to a strict timetable.
