Two brothers Abdul Qader and Khalifa Ali al Khalifa from al Soor town north of Deir Ez-Zour governorate, were shot and killed by unidentified gunmen in al Jasemi village near Soor town on April 16, 2022. The village is under the control of the Syrian Democratic Forces, and SNHR is still trying to reach eyewitnesses to obtain more details of the incident.
SNHR condemns all killings of civilians and calls on the 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.
