Wazir Hamdan al Hawas from al Hariji village north of Deir Ez-Zour governorate, employee at the Syrian Democratic Forces’ Municipality in the village, was shot and killed on May 14, 2022 by unidentified gunmen in the village, which is under the control of the Syrian Democratic Forces.
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.
