Belal Adnan al-Turkmani, a 36-year-old man from al-Sahwa town in the eastern suburbs of Daraa governorate, was shot dead by as-yet unidentified gunmen in a street in the town on April 14, 2023,.
The area is under the control of Syrian regime forces. The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) is still trying to locate eyewitnesses to obtain more information about the incident. We call on the controlling forces to uphold their responsibilities for protecting civilians in their areas and to investigate this incident and make the findings of the investigation known to the public. Syria will never have true stability without a genuine political transition process towards democracy within a fixed timetable.
