NewsCenter_The recurrence of killing incidents and crimes in many Syrian cities reveals the absence of effective measures to remove war remnants and weak community protection mechanisms, which has contributed to the rising numbers of victims, particularly among children and women.

Since the beginning of December, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has documented a series of bloody incidents that claimed the lives of dozens of civilians across various Syrian cities, including 16 children and 14 women. The causes of death varied between landmine explosions and war remnants, random or accidental gunfire, criminal offenses, in addition to cases of domestic violence and so-called "honor" crimes.

Yesterday, Thursday, December 25th, the Observatory recorded fatalities during airdrop operations carried by international coalition forces, and others resulting from clashes and mutual shelling between military forces in Aleppo. It indicated that these scattered incidents reflect the continued fragility of the security situation and the multiple sources of danger threatening civilians' lives in the country.

These incidents show that children and women are the groups most affected by violence and security instability in Syria, reflecting the fragile security situation and lack of adequate protection for civilians in various regions including Damascus, Latakia, Deir ez-Zor, and Idlib.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights continues to monitor and document these incidents and human losses in various regions, calling on official authorities and humanitarian organizations to take urgent and effective measures to protect these vulnerable groups and ensure their safety.
