A boy, identified as Mohammad Ahmad Mousab al-Sayied Eisa from Idlib city, died on December 16, 2024, of wounds sustained two weeks before, on December 2, 2024, when fixed-wing Assad regime warplanes bombarded attack Idlib city. The area is under the control of the current transitional authorities in Syria.
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) notes that through this attack, the Assad regime has again unequivocally violated UN Security Council resolutions 2139 & 2254, both of which categorically prohibit indiscriminate attacks, as well as violating the rules of international humanitarian law on distinguishing between civilians and fighters. Such attacks aim solely to spread fear and panic among civilians, to drive them from their lands and homes, and to forcibly displace them. An estimated 6.8 million people are currently internally displaced in Syria.
