The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights calls upon the members of the UN Security Council, to issue a decision condemning the continued use of Bashar al-Assad’s regime for its warplanes and helicopter shelling areas around Syria, which killed dozens of thousands and displaced hundreds of thousands from their homes, as it ignored the statement by UN Security Council in the 22/Feb/2014 which orders all the parties in Syria to stop using explosive barrels on heavy weapons in civilians areas

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, calls for countries that have a significant impact in the international community, and that claim to defend human rights, to work harder in order to stop the war crimes and crimes against humanity, committed daily against the Syrian people, and to refer the file of these crimes to international Criminal Court, or establishing a special courts in Syria,incaseRussia and China continued using the right of veto in the UN Security Council, to prevent the transfer this file to the International Criminal Court, because it is a shame on those who pretend to respect the Human Rights to just write and publish statements that condemns such crimes
