On January 5, 2021, local families discovered the bodies of three Iraqi civilians bearing signs of gunshot wounds in Section Two of al Hawl IDP Camp near al Hawl town in the eastern suburbs of Hasaka governorate.
Although the SNHR has so far been unable to identify the party responsible for the killings, the area is controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces. Despite the controlling forces bearing responsibility for revealing the perpetrator’s identity, they have not launched any investigation, which increases the suspicion of their involvement in the killing.
