Suffering and Violations:

Damascus Suburbs || Moadamiyet al-Sham

Doctors in makeshift clinics in Moadamiyet al-Sham and all Syrian governorates operate on people who receive wounds due to shelling under extremely dire psychological strain and medical shortage. Makeshift clinics do not receive enough medical and material support due to the siege imposed by the regime forces on the cities under bombardment blocking aid from reaching them. The regime also persecutes the doctors in charge of these clinics.
