The head of the services committee with the civil council affiliated with Syrian Democratic Forces, named as Saleh Abeid al Hazaa, from Deir Ez-Zour governorate, died on February 2, 2021, due to wounds sustained on February 1, 2021, in a shooting by unknown gunmen in al Bseira city in the eastern suburbs of the governorate. SNHR is still trying to contact witnesses to obtain more details of the incident.
SNHR condemns all attacks of this nature which target and kill civilians and calls on the governing forces in each area to bear responsibility for protecting civilians in the areas under their control, and to conduct investigations into all such incidents and reveal their findings to the public. Stability will not be achieved in Syria without achieving a political transition towards democracy implemented according to a strict timetable.
