Khaled Ahmad Fahan al-Bardan, from Tafas city in the western suburbs of Daraa governorate, was shot dead on April 19, 2023, by gunmen we have not yet been able to identify on the road connecting the two cities of Tafas and Dael in the northern suburbs of Daraa governorate.
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.
