Mohammad Abdul Rahman al-Haj Ahmad, a 13-year-old boy from the village of al-Rfei’a in the eastern suburbs of Aleppo governorate, was killed on March 8, 2023, by the explosion of a landmine whose source we have not yet been able to identify while he was playing near his home in the village, which is under the control of Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

The Syrian Network for Human Rights is still trying to locate eyewitnesses to obtain more information about the incident. We call on the controlling forces to uphold their responsibilities to protect civilians in their areas, and to locate and remove landmines planted in these areas. We have documented hundreds of deaths and injuries resulting from the explosion of landmines, which pose a long-term, serious threat, especially to children, which will last for years to come.
