At least 413 people killed during week of peace talks: monitor

(Zaman Al Wasl- SNHR)- At least 413 people, including 54 children, 35 women, and 131 rebel fighters, have been killed during the last week, the Syrian Network for Human Rights said in detailed report.

The Network has documented 55 major violations fro ceasefire deal by the warring parties in Syria in the first week of round 4 of Geneva Talks. 88% of the violations carried out by the Russian-backed regime forces.
 
The report noted that many acts of unlawful killing and bombardment operations were recorded even though Ankara Ceasefire Agreement has been in force since December 30, 2016, as the massacre rates have increased, and civilians and vital civil facilities are being targeted more heavily following the commencement of Geneva Talks.
 
The report also says that the detainees issue has yet to see any progress even though it was addressed in U.N. Resolution 2254 that emphasizes that all detainees, particularly children and women, must be released immediately. Furthermore, the report didn’t monitor any changes in the rates of arbitrary arrests in the areas under the control of the Syrian regime. Additionally, SNHR hasn’t recorded -according to the report- any unconditional releases by the Syrian regime from its detention centers, where such releases were part of prisoner exchange deals the regime struck with armed opposition, or by releasing detainees who are under the jurisdiction of the terrorism court after paying a cash bail, where the detainee remains on trial.
 
The death toll topped to 413 individuals, 282 civilians, including 54 children and 35 women, and 131 armed opposition fighters. The Syrian regime killed 141 individuals – 99 civilians, including 24 children and 14 women, and 42 armed opposition fighters, while Russian forces killed 23 civilians including four children and nine women. In addition, 74 civilians were arrested.
