Unidentified gunmen shot and killed a 17-year-old boy, Badr Ayad al Khater al Daham, in al Zer village in Deir Ez-Zour governorate eastern suburbs on April 6, 2022. The village is under the control of the Syrian Democratic Forces, and 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.
