News Center – The recurring cases of disappearance and abduction of women, girls, and children in Syria’s coastal regions have formed a disturbing pattern that has sparked fear and anxiety among residents. The lack of transparency surrounding these incidents, along with the absence of legal accountability, has deepened the sense of insecurity and heightened social tension.

Local sources from the Syrian coast reported today, Wednesday, October 15, that Samar Ismail, a woman in her forties and mother of four, was found days after she went missing last Saturday. She had lost contact with her family while traveling from her home to her sister’s house in the Al-Da’atour neighborhood on the Al-Ghab road in Hama countryside. She was first taken to her sister’s house and later returned to her home in the city of Latakia.

The sources indicated that Samar Ismail was in a critical physical and psychological condition when she was found, showing clear signs of severe beating. She was unable to stand or speak for several hours, raising widespread concern among residents about the circumstances of her disappearance and what she might have endured during that period.

At the same time, Hadeel Ajdari, a psychology student at Tishreen University in Latakia, who went missing on Sunday, October 12, on her way to the university, has also reappeared. She was seen in a short video standing next to her father, saying, “I am Hadeel Mohammed Ajdari, a psychology graduate, born in 2002. I went missing on Sunday and returned today.” Her father did not provide any explanation about the circumstances of her disappearance or her whereabouts during that time, prompting many questions.

In contrast, the fate of the child Mohammed Qais Haidar, around ten years old, remains unknown. He was reportedly kidnapped by a group of masked gunmen more than a week ago in front of his school in the Al-Mashrou’ al-Ashir neighborhood of Latakia. Until now, no official or public information has been released regarding his location or the party responsible for his abduction, causing deep concern among residents and increasing tension in the city.

Meanwhile, Naama Mohammed Ibrahim, a 34-year-old woman, has been missing since October 6 after leaving her home in the village of Kherbet al-Ma’zeh in the Tartous countryside, heading toward the city of Tartous. Since then, all contact with her has been lost, and the circumstances of her disappearance remain unclear. Her family and local residents continue to express growing concern amid the recurring cases of disappearance and the ongoing lack of official explanations.
