Thirty-two-year-old Abdul Muhsen Hashem al Dali and 22-year-old Muhsen Abdul Qader al Hashem, both from al Qaryatein town east of Homs Daraa governorate, were shot dead while herding sheep by unidentified gunmen in the desert area around Rasafa city in the southwestern suburbs of Raqqa governorate on March 19, 2022. The region is under the control of Syrian regime forces.
SNHR is still trying to reach eyewitnesses for more details on the incident.
SNHR condemns all killings of civilians and calls on controlling forces to assume their responsibility for protecting the civilian population in areas under their control and to launch an investigation into this incident and reveal its conclusions to the public.
There will be no stability in Syria without a genuine political process moving towards democracy, implemented according to a set timetable.
