A 23-year-old man, identified as Mohammad Abduh al-Amarin from Nawa city in the western suburbs of Daraa governorate, was shot dead in a street in the city on May 14, 2023, by gunmen we have not yet been able to identify.
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, to investigate this incident, and to 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.
