Selected Testimonies From Victims of the Syrian Conflict – Human Rights Council, September 2014

“The ongoing armed conflict in the Syrian Arab Republic has caused death and destruction on a massive scale. The commission’s reports, updates, thematic papers and speeches have chronicled violations and abuses of international human rights and humanitarian law by all warring parties and the immense human suffering that these violations have caused. The commission is presenting, with their consent, twelve selected testimonies from victims of egregious violations. These testimonies are a public recognition of victims’ suffering and the harm caused to them by parties to the conflict. They serve as an acknowledgement of the facts and as a tribute to the victims.”
