\nDCHRS Statement on Douma Massacre for September 9, 2014<\/a>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

With Al-Assad remaining in power, horrible bloodbaths and violations are increasingly being perpetrated. In Damascus suburb, a new massacre was perpetrated disregarding all the international laws and covenants which states that displaced gatherings and civil areas must be protected from any military operations according to the international humanitarian law.<\/p>\n

Two brutal airstrikes by the Syrian regime warplanes targeted Douma city in Damascus suburbs, killed more than 25 victims, and wounded 70 others at least; most of whom were women and children.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday September 9, 2014 at approximately 2:30 PM, the Syrian regime warplanes targeted Douma city with two airstrikes. The missiles targeted a civilians gathering on Misraba Bridge at the borders of Douma city. The shelling killed 18 people immediately and wounded more than 70; most of them were women and children. Also, the shelling caused significant damages to the residential buildings.<\/p>\n

At the end of the day, the death toll increased to 25 victims who were documented by name. DCHRS activists assured that the toll will likely increase considering the critical cases and the poor medical capabilities in Douma field hospitals.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, more than 70 were wounded; most of them were women and children. All the injured were transferred to the field-hospitals in the city, Douma medical center, and the Red Crescent clinics in the city<\/p>\n

DCHRS noted that these massacres and daily targeting of residential and displacement areas in besieged Damascus suburb at the hands of the Syrian regime is not the first and certainly will not be the last. Al-Assad regime disregarded all the international laws which protect civilians and prohibit attacking them as military targets.<\/p>\n

We renew our condemnation of Al-Assad crimes against Syrian civilians. Also, we urge the United Nations and the concerned international parties to press on the Syrian regime in order to stop targeting civilians and to take immediate actions to protect them from the brutality of the Syrian regime and its various arsenals, which targets civilians every day.<\/p>\n

We, also, urge the Security Council to adopt a binding resolution in order to put an end to the Syrian regime crimes against unarmed civilians. Also, the individuals who are responsible for these crimes should be held accountable.<\/p>\n

Arresting, killing, destroying, besieging, barrel bombs and poison gases, and shelling civilians and the displaced continuously didn’t stop. The Syrian regime didn’t spare any mean against the Syrian people as it is shedding more and more Syrian blood revealed a suspicious Arabic and International silence especially that the Syrian regime is still violating all the relevant conventions and agreements. <\/span><\/p>\n
