    Human Rights' violations in Syria (figures and facts)

    March 2011 to 21 of August 2013

    Prepared by Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR)

    Introduction:

    Based on the efforts of its investigation and documentation team, the Syrian Network for

    Human Rights (SNHR) consistently documented human rights violations in Syria according

    to the international standards generally recognized in the description, verification and

    investigation of all human rights violations in Syria by a team of unique independent human

    rights activists with no political or ideological trend. Their main job is to document human

    rights violations in Syria based on the testimonies of victims of such violations or

    eyewitnesses; and relatives of the victims themselves or people existed at the time and place

    of the violation. In many cases, they depend on the testimonies of medical staff in various

    areas of Syria who are continuously witnessing the horrible and terrifying human rightsviolations in Syria.

    It should be mentioned that the work mechanism of Syrian Network for Human Rights'

    Group is based on a precise verification and documentation method, and on our members

    who are deployed on the Syrian territory to gather facts and record written testimonies, live

    images and videos, oral and registered interviews audio and video interviews so as to

    complement the efforts exerted to documenting human rights violations under the

    restrictions imposed by the Syrian government on the network members as well as the arrest

    and assassination of any of them if direct or indirect relation with the network is recognized.

    This reflected in serious and frequent losses of the network's activists while doing their duty

    in Syrian territory.

    SNHRs documentation policy depends on documenting a name from at least two different

    sources unconnected with each other. SNHR does not issue any statistics without supported

    files containing very precise details of each death case fully identified by the name of the

    victim, as well as the date and location of death.

    By those standards SNHR was adopted as one of the most important resources in UN

    statistics for the victims of the Syrian conflicts, as well as adopted as the main source for

    many news agencies and television stations.

    SNHR documented civilian casualties from both sides, in addition to free army victims as a

    result of the possibility to apply the network's criteria in documentation and verification, this

    criteria can't be applied to Syrian Government's Armed Forces members who were killed

    due to the prosecution, ban, and restrictions.

    Since the first moment of the Popular Syrian Revolution against the rule of Bashar Al-

    Assad, Syrian Security Forces and Syrian Government's Armed Forces accompanied with

    Shabiha handled with excessive violence the civilian protestors, arrested hundreds, and

    killed dozens of them, not a day goes by without documentation the kill of civilian victims

    or arrest female or male activist, even killed large number of them.

    Since the early days of the revolution, Syrian government's Armed forces used different

    kinds of weapons against the Syrian people. They used live bullets, after a while the Syrian

    army came down to the cities and towns and started to shell it using tanks. Then they usedair forces: helicopters then warplanes, scud missiles and unguided weapons such as mortars,

    TNT that was dropped by warplanes, in addition to the use of internationally prohibited

    poisonous gases in 14 cites .

    This was a deliberate gradual escalation by the Syrian government to monitor the reaction of

    the international community and Security Council, and led to increase the level of escalation

    the more international silence on the crimes committed by them.

    Report's Details:

    Since the beginning of the Syrian uprising in March 2011 to 21 August 2013 , SNHR

    documented by name, place, cause of death, and photo or video, the killing of 101,513

    people, 89,664 of them are civilians (88% civilian victims), which is a very high rate. In

    World War 2, the proportion of civilian victims was 4/57%.

    Among the 89,664 civilians' victims: 10,914 children, the proportion of child victims is

    12%, which is a very high figure and indicate the deliberate targeting and systematic killing

    of the civilians, in addition, the number of child detainees is almost 9,000 children.

    Among the 89,664 civilian victims: 9,911 women, the proportion of women victims is 11%,which is a very high figure and indicate the deliberate targeting and systematic killing of the

    3/19

    civilians, the number of woman detainees are almost 6500 women , more than 5000 women

    have been raped by Syrian Government's Armed Forces

    2964 victims have been tortured to death in prisons and detentions, where they subjected to

    very violent torture leading to loss of life.

    The following link contains all victims' details since the beginning of the revolution to

    21/8/2013:

    http://www.syrianhr.org/reports/All_21_8_2013.pdf

    In Syria, each hours 6 citizen killed by Government's Troops, with a daily average of 135

    citizen

    Every two hours a child killed

    Every three hours a woman killed

    As a reference this what we were able to document by name, location, photo, and video

    within the available possibilities under embargo and censorship imposed by the Syrian

    Government , although our estimation suggest that the real number of victims could reach

    fold of this number.

    (Chart #1: The following chart shows the distribution of the victims in the Syrian

    governorates)

    During clashes and fighting between armed rebel and government forces 11,849 of armed

    rebel have been killed, the real numbers in this field maybe more than that and because the

    great difficulty in getting the names and photos of the victims during battles, and the

    difficult of presence of SNHR's member or associate with them in all fighting in various

    Syrian governorate.

    The proportion of armed rebels' victims is 12%

    students) and 35,000 male colleague students, according to the last survey conducted by

    Syrian Government's Armed Troops systematically and intentionally violated these laws and

    international conventions using violent torture methods against detainees, which led to the

    death of 2,963 Syrian citizens under torture, including 87 children, 27 women, 51 aged

    (more than 60 years old), and 128 armed rebels (less than 5% of the toll victims under

    torture)

    The following link shows all details:

    https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9Bj18tlYYKBNVZ4WWgyZlcyLVU/edit

    SNHR has noticed the rise of torture and tortured-to-death frequency in the last four months

    which led to the increase in the number of victims tortured to death since the Syrian upraise

    to unprecedented high levels.

    April 2013: the highest rate of torturing to death was in this month, 186 citizens killed under

    torture, an average of 5 citizens every day.

    There is a high number of cases for those who were tortured to death that we were not able

    to document because of restrictions and deprivation of work on Syrian territory, this means

    the real number could be far greater, especially since there are prisons who torture people to

    death and then throw the bodies into vacant land or in rivers, so it will decompose and

    disintegrate and blur the crime.

    1- Ghost Technique (Shabeh position): hanging victims to the bathroom ceiling from thewrists while the victim stands on a chair, then removing the the chair so the victim will stand

    on the groung by his/her big toe.

    Another case of Shabeh, known as fly ghost, where they tightened one of his/her feet with

    the victims hand using the same rope for many hours and even day or two, causing hands to

    be inflamed or even cut.

    2- Tire position (Dulab) the victim is forced to bend at the waist and stick his head, neck,legs and sometimes arms into the inside of a car tire, then stat beating him on different parts

    of his body

    3- Flying Carpet position (Basat Al-reeh) involves tying the victim down to a twosections flat so that the detainees hands and feet get tied to the front and back of the plank,and his face on the ground of it. Then, the front side of the plank is lifted as to fold it so that

    the body of the detainee gets folded until his head touches his feet. This leads to a dangerous

    stretch in the ligaments and nerves of the spine, which results the most dreadful kind of pain

    a person can suffer from. Meanwhile, another person is beating the detainee.

    4- Crucifiction: the hands and legs of the detainee are tightened like a crucified personthen they beat him/her specifically on genitals

    5- Hanging: the hands are tied behind the back, then the detainee is hanged up andbeaten with sticks and wires.

    6- Smashing, where a detainee head is placed between the wall and the door of theprison, the door is closed on the head of the detainee.

    8- Electric shocks to various parts of body9- The German chair (Al-kursi al-Almani): a metal chair with moving parts to which thevictim is tied by hands and feet. The prackrest of the chair bebds backwords causing acute

    hyperextension of the spine and severe pressure on the vicitms neck and limbs

    Second: Various kinds of torturing (22 cases)

    1- Using all methods of beating on all body parts by different tools such as stake andelectric cables, called colloquially (Robai), to beat on the soles and tread on the head.

    back or stomach

    8- burning detinee`s skin using chemical acids or cigarettes.9- exposing the detainee after being enforced to take off all clothes and covers toextreme cold.

    10- depriving the detainee from medical care totally as there is a lack of medical care inlarge number of prisons.

    11- Prevnting the detainee to use the toilet but once or twice a day, forcing him/hersometimes to urinate on himself/herself. If the detainee is allowed to use toilet, the period

    may not exceed a minute. The detainee is also prevented from taking shower, going out and

    Finally, the Syrian Network for Human Rights wants to confirm its constant belief that the

    violations against human rights in Syria is to be classified as crimes against humanity, which

    necessitates the referral of all the responsible to The International Criminal Court without

    any delay cause of the political interests of the major countries in the Security Council. What

    have took place and is still taking place in Syria now are atrocities deserve to be referred to

    The International Criminal Court to be investigated in the same way that was during the

    Libyan Revolution during two weeks only. This hasnt been yet done despite the expiration

    of twenty six months or more of the flagrant violations against human rights in Syria.

    The Syrian Network for Human Rights emphasizes its constant and deep-rooted readiness,

    through its members of experts in investigating, documenting and following up, to cooperate

    with the investigators of The International Criminal Court to present everyone contributed

    by giving orders or committing crimes of violation against human rights in Syria to a fair

    hearing which could avenge for those who suffered and are still suffering in Syria from the

    injustice, absolutism and pain of violating their human rights which were guaranteed by theinternational legitimacy for human rights, and which the International Legitimacy that is

    mired in dubious silence hasnt yet seen.
