Seventh anniversary of horrific massacre | 35 civilians killed by warplane shelling and another falling in Ariha Market in Idlib
SOHR renews its demands to hold the murderers of Syrian people accountable and bring them to justice.
SOHR activists documented a horrific massacre seven years ago today, on 3 August, 2015, where 35 people were killed by the warplanes’ shells and by the fall of another warplane on the area of the vegetables market in Ariha city including:
• Three children under the age of 16
• One woman
• 25 men over the age of 18
• Five unidentified men
Moreover, over 60 people were injured, with some of them severely.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) would like to bring to mind heinous massacres committed against innocent and peaceful Syrian civilians by all conflicting and warring powers in Syrian territory, especially since the killing of Syrians has been still continuing for over a decade.
We, at SOHR, renew our calls to bring all those responsible and those who aided and abetted the killing of Syrian people to justice. We also appeal to the international community and United Nations to intensify their efforts to reach a political settlement which could potentially put an end to bloodshed in Syria.
