Assaults and Human Rights Violation:

Aleppo | Hraitan

In addition to shelling and bombardment, the citizens in Syria struggle daily with disconnected communications, water and electricity, and even the most basic and simple food like bread is difficult to obtain:

Aleppo | Albab

Makeshift hospitals are packed with those wounded as a result of the offensive carried on by regime forces on towns and cities. The main struggle is that those hospitals are not equipped to treat the wounded:

Dar’aa | Alghareyah Asharqeyah

This is a different city but the same scenario repeats itself in a makeshift hospital where wounded people are treated with the most primitive materials given the shortage of medical staff and supplies:
