Two civilians from the same family, Ahmad Khaled al Najm, and his nephew whose name we haven’t yet been able to identify, both from Teib al Fal village in eastern Deir Ez-Zour governorate, were shot and killed by unidentified gunmen on September 4, 2022 in al Za’eem Street in Ras al Ein city in northwestern Hasaka governorate, which is controlled by Syrian National Army forces.
SNHR is still trying to reach eyewitnesses to obtain more details on 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.
