Security vacuum | Unknown gunmen shoot child dead in eastern Deir Ezzor

SOHR sources have reported that unknown gunmen shot dead a 16-year-old child in front of his house in Al-Hawayij town in the east of Deir Ezzor yesterday evening.

 

This comes as a part of security chaos throughout Syria in all zones of influence.

According to reliable SOHR sources, the civilian was accused of “carrying out robberies”, where he was found shacked with gunshots wounds.
