Saed Ayed al Mekhlef, born in 1970, from al Ya’rubiya town in the eastern suburbs of Hasaka governorate, who was an employee with the town’s council which is controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces, was shot dead by unidentified gunmen in Suleiman Sari village in Hasaka governorate’s eastern suburbs on April 7, 2022. The village is under the control of the Syrian Democratic Forces, and SNHR is still trying to reach eyewitnesses for more details of 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.
