– Damascus A Syrian human rights organization accused Monday, after analyzing videos dating back to the first years, the Syrian regime forces deliberately burned the bodies of deaths inside pits in remote areas in the south of the country, in order to obliterate their identities, condemning the Syrian forces with horrific crimes.
“The Syrian government aims to destroy the evidence that it has been committed to these crimes, and depriving the families of the victims of knowing the fate of their loved ones, or receiving their remains. ”
The centre examined 13 video recordings from 2012 and 2013 that depicted bodies, burning, and burial in mass graves dug in the Daraa Governorate (south).
Four military intelligence divisions and the ninth division reveal that they dispose of at least 15 bodies, many of which are thought to be dissidents and civilians in the Al-Lajat region.
The centre also abstained from watching movies that included satellite images to track the location of delivery trucks.
In one of the clips, an officer takes pictures of the dead faces before one of the elements poured “gasoline on the face of the corpse and hands”, in a step that the center is aimed at “erasing any effect through which it is possible to identify the identities of the owners of these bodies. ”
The report states that after setting the fire and kicking the victims into a pit, members of the dictatorship took turns pouring gasoline to gradually stop themselves.
The 15 bodies, all of which are dressed in civilian clothes, are reportedly those of dissident citizens and military personnel who were killed by the regime’s troops during a raid on a home in Daraa Governorate in December 2012.
The center obtained videos from a media activist who said that it received it from an exhibition faction targeting the forces, which were carrying out the burning operations, in an ambush, and killed all its elements, and among them an element with the military intelligence that was responsible for photography.
In jails, the administration is accused of breaching human rights by acts including torture, rape, and sexual abuse in addition to executions.
It has been reported in the media for months about video clips from 2013 that were published by the British newspaper The Guardian and the “New Lines” institute about the killing of members of the regime forces for dozens of people. This is not the first time that the regime forces have been accused of burning the bodies of people.
The regime’s forces may be seen requesting people with their wrists tied together and their blindfolds on to run. If the subjects are interested, they are shot and fall into a hole where other bodies have been dumped. The bodies of the 41 guys who died were burned.
International pressure on the International Criminal Court to pursue Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and other members of his regime has increased.
Russia and China have rejected attempts to give the International Criminal Court the required authorisation to set up a special court for Syria. Previous attempts to prosecute officials of the Syrian regime have failed.
The Syrian army is accused of destroying enemy bodies by burning them.
