The highest rate of torture murder and children killed this month: 123 citizens were tortured to death, 3313 citizens were killed (an average of 138 people a day, 6 people an hour), 377 children killed (an average of 13 children a day), and 176 tortured to death (an average of 6 people a day).

The Syrian government’s Armed Forces through the daily shelling, raids, massacres and torturing of detainees to death, in addition to causalities of armed rebels through clashes killed 3313 citizens, included 176 people who were tortured to death. Among the 3313 citizens: 2330 civilians, 983 Armed rebels. And Among the 2330 civilians SNHR documented:

1-     337 child victims with an average of 13 children a day, and the proportion of children killed is 16%, a very high rate and strict evidence that the Syrian Government’s Armed Forces target civilians;

2-      226 female victims, where the proportion of the women victims is 9%, another high rate and strict evidence that the Syrian Government’s Armed Forces targeting the civilians;

3-     176 tortured to death, an average of 6 people a day tortured to death in official or unofficial detention centers.

SNHR would like to indicate that this what we could document by our deployed members in all of the Syrian provinces classified by names date and place, photo or video .

We couldn’t document many cases of massacres and killing for many reasons, including procedures repeatedly and systematically made by Syrian Government’s Armed Forces, who disconnect our communications and blockade areas for many days.  This makes the aforementioned statistics higher than stated, not to mention, the Syrian government has prevented human rights organizations from performing their duties on its territory.

The total numbers of victims dispersed all across  provinces of Syria as follows:

Damascus and countryside: 1141
Aleppo: 633
Homs: 427

Daraa: 316
Idlib: 269
Hama: 225
Deir Alzour: 159
Hasaka: 56
Raqqa: 41
Qunaitra: 31

Lattakia: 10
Tartous: 3

Swidaa: 2

1-     SNHR is certain that Syrian Government’s Armed Groups and Shabiha violated Previsions of Human Rights International Law which protects the right of life, in addition to dozens of cases considered to be war crimes (murder cases).

Undoubted Evidence of hundreds of eyewitness stories, that more than 90% of expanded and individual attacks directed against civilians, all contrary to the Syrian Government’s claims that they are fighting Al-Qaeda and other terrorists cells.

2-     SNHR also indicates the documented events to be crimes against humanity, where the condition of widespread and systematic direct attacks against civilian population groups in most cases of murder were achieved.

Responsibility of states for internationally wrongful acts, similarly Customary IHL, states that the state is responsible for all acts committed by a members of its military and security forces. Thus, states are responsible of wrongful acts committed by its military and security forces, including crimes against humanity.

SNHR holds the Syrian President and Commander in Chief of the Syrian army, Bashar al-Assad, responsible for all acts of homicide, torture, and massacres perpetrated in Syria, as he holds the primary responsibility for giving the orders for these acts. SNHR considers all Syrian regime members and heads of the security and military bodies directly complied in those acts. By the same token, SNHR considers the Iranian government and Hezbullah as direct partners in the acts of homicide, and are legally and judicially liable,  along with anyone who funds and supports the Syrian regime which systematically commit massacres on a daily basis. SNHR holds all aforementioned parties responsible for all consequences and potential reactions from the Syrian people in general, and the families of the victims in particular.
