June 27, 2013 Hezbollah Operatives Killed in Syria – Update1 Cartoon from a Syrian opposition website: Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah sends his operatives to the Syrian oven (Akhbar al-Balad website, Syria, May 27, 2013) Overview 1. So far the involvement of Hezbollah in the Syrian civil war, in our assessment, has cost the organization almost 180 deaths and several hundred wounded. This assessment is based on our having located 82 names of operatives killed, in addition to 96 names found previously.2 2. Most of the Hezbollah operatives (120) killed met their deaths during the campaign for Al-Qusayr, the majority of them (114) in the final battle (that began on May 19, 2013, and ended on June 5, 2013, with the takeover of the city). Several dozen Hezbollah operatives were killed defending the compound of the grave of Al- Set Zaynab and others in other battle sites. In addition, we have names of several other Hezbollah operatives who were killed but without data about the location or circumstances of their deaths, only short Hezbollah announcements that they were killed while engaged in carrying out the duty of jihad in Syria. 1 As of June 24, 2013. This bulletin updates the June 4, 2013 bulletin "Hezbollah Involvement in the Syrian Civil War." 2 For further information see the June 4, 2013 bulletin “Hezbollah Involvement in the Syrian Civil War.” 100-13 2 3. Among the names are 13 who were killed after June 5, the date of the takeover of Al-Qusayr. In our assessment, some of them were killed while clearing Al-Qusayr and its environs of opposition forces, some defending the grave of Al-Set Zaynab south of Damascus (where Hezbollah is still involved in skirmishes) and some in locations and under circumstances about which we have no information. Some of the operatives may have been killed in the battles in the Aleppo region where there is Hezbollah involvement (although its role is secondary). 4. The distribution of the 178 Hezbollah deaths according to places of origin is the following: 1) South Lebanon – 88 killed 2) Beqa'a Valley – 64 killed 3) Beirut – 11 killed 4) Mt. Lebanon and north Lebanon – four killed 5) A Shi'ite village in Syria (Al-Qusayr region) – one killed 6) Unknown – ten killed 5. Accordingly, most of the Hezbollah operatives killed (about 50%) were from south Lebanon. (The large number of deaths of operatives spread among the villages in south Lebanon continues to be conspicuous.) About 36% were from the Beqa'a Valley, and about 6% were from Beirut; the rest came from Mt. Lebanon, north Lebanon and the region of Al-Qusayr – or whose origins we could not trace. 6. The number of losses Hezbollah has suffered is great, especially during the final battle for Al-Qusayr (114). In our assessment, that is because it was a main combatant in the fighting, its operatives were fighting offensively in an unfamiliar urban setting, and the rebels apparently showed strong resistance, especially fighters from the Al-Qaeda-affiliated Al-Nusra Front who fought alongside the rebels (who, according to media reports, also suffered heavy losses). 7. The large number of losses fueled criticism of Hezbollah inside Lebanon and among the Lebanese Shi'ites, although the level of criticism is apparently still tolerable as far as Hezbollah is concerned and does not keep the organization from being sucked further into the Syrian civil war. However, in our assessment, the significant number of losses in Al-Qusayr may influence the way Hezbollah supports the Syrian army in the campaign to takeover Aleppo and the surroundings. An example of that was In any event, the statement made by the Hezbollah in the region of Aleppo to the Sunday 100-13 3 Times. He said that Hezbollah's role in Aleppo would be one of supervision and advice to the Syrian army, and not fighting in the front lines3. 8. For the names and pictures of the 82 Hezbollah operatives who died in the fighting in Syria since May 22, 2013, see the Appendices. 3 For further information see the June 19, 2013 bulletin "Following the victory at Al-Qusayr Hezbollah is preparing to support the Syrian army forces to take over Aleppo." 100-13 4 Appendix A Hezbollah Operatives Killed in the Fighting in Syria4 Name and Date Site and Origin and place Source of information information circumstances of funeral of death 1.

    NGO Report Submitted to the United Nations Committee for the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) In response to the second periodic report of the Government of the Syrian Arab Republic Geneva, Switzerland, July 2014 I. Introduction The violent armed conflict has entered its fourth year and is spreading to most Syrian regions, now divided into the so-called “regime-controlled territory” and “territory out of the regime control”. The Syrian people, including all classes and social formations, is paying a heavy price for the ongoing armed violence in various areas. Reports by UN agencies, local and international human rights organizations and experiences of countries with similar contexts shows that women bear the heaviest burden of such conflicts. Gender-based violence and discrimination had existed in Syria before the armed conflict and were emphasized by a number of laws and practices in public or private spheres. Patriarchal values and norms still govern the Syrian women’s lives and rights as sacred religious and social values. With the lack of international action toward what is happening in Syria, we would like to draw attention that, with the continuing armed conflict for more than three years, women have become vulnerable to all forms of violent practices and various human rights violations by different parties to the conflict, though with varied levels and forms between one party and another. Women suffer from killing, forced disappearances, detention, rape, kidnapping, internal and external displacement. They have to secure livelihood for their families in displacement areas and refuge countries. Child marriage and women trafficking have significantly increased particularily in the refuge host countries.

    Syria 2017 Human Rights Report

    SYRIA 2017 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY President Bashar Assad has ruled the Syrian Arab Republic since 2000. The constitution mandates the primacy of Baath Party leaders in state institutions and society, and Assad and Baath party leaders dominate all three branches of government. An uprising against the government that began in 2011 continued throughout the year. The 2014 presidential election and the April 2016 parliamentary elections resulted in the election of Assad and 200 People’s Council (Syrian parliament) seats for the Baath Party-led National Progressive Front, respectively. Both elections took place in an environment of widespread government coercion, and many Syrians residing in opposition-held territory did not participate in the elections. Observers did not consider the elections free or fair. The government maintained control over its uniformed military, police, and state security forces, but it did not maintain effective control over foreign and domestic military or paramilitary organizations. These included Russian armed forces; Hizballah and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps; nonuniformed progovernment militias, such as the National Defense Forces; and the Bustan Charitable Association, or “shabiha.” The most significant human rights abuses included unlawful and arbitrary killings by the government and its allies resulting from atrocities they committed during the conflict, including the repeated use of chemical weapons, including sarin and chlorine, against civilians, widespread “barrel bombing” of civilians

The terrorist organization known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria declared a global jihad and urged “true” Muslims all over the world for an exodus towards the newly founded Islamic state. Turkey, as a neighbour to the conflict zone, has been facing an increasing risk and threats to its security at many levels. The reason for the risk is essentially caused not only by the geographical proximity to the conflict zone but also by its border neighbours, which include such non-state actors as DAESH, the Kurdish Democratic. Turkey is preparing to launch the main effort of its Operation Olive Branch assault against the Syrian Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) in the Afrin area in northern Syria. Turkish forces and Turkish-backed Syrian opposition groups have set military conditions for a Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) ground operation in the coming days. In this paper we will present the Jihadist groups that act for Turkey's interests as well as for Syria's interests. Knowing these groups will help us understand that terrorism is financed from the outside to create destabilization of the area.

    Syria 2016 Human Rights Report

    SYRIA 2016 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY President Bashar Asad has ruled the Syrian Arab Republic since 2000. The constitution mandates the primacy of Baath Party leaders in state institutions and society, and Asad and Baath party leaders dominated all three branches of government. The 2014 presidential election won by Asad and the geographically limited parliamentary elections in April won by the Baath Party took place in an environment of widespread government coercion. The results did not reflect the unimpeded or uncoerced will of the electorate. In government-controlled areas, Asad made key decisions with counsel from a small number of military and security advisors, ministers, and senior members of the ruling Baath Party. The government routinely violated the human rights of its citizens as major conflict enveloped the country. The government maintained control over its uniformed military, police, and state security forces but did not maintain effective control over foreign and local paramilitary organizations. These included Hizballah and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps; nonuniformed progovernment militias, such as the National Defense Forces; the Bustan Charitable Association; or “shabiha,” which often acted autonomously without oversight or direction from the government. The government’s use of lethal force to quell peaceful civil protests calling for reform and democracy in 2011 precipitated a civil war in 2012. The civil war continued during the year. The government maintained control over most areas of the coastal governorates and in areas in and around Damascus. It regularly attacked areas with significant opposition presence. By year’s end progovernment forces had retaken eastern Aleppo City. Different opposition groups with varying ideologies and goals controlled several parts of the north and areas in the Golan Heights, in many cases establishing new or reconstituted governance structures, including irregularly constituted courts.
