Joulani Regime’s Atrocities Against Alawite Women in Syria
The English section of webangah news Agency, citing Mehr news Agency and Al Mayadeen, reported that the American site Al-Monitor examined human rights violations against minorities in Syria, especially Alawite and Druze women. Referencing an Amnesty International report,it confirmed the worsening security and legal conditions despite official promises from the Jolani regime to protect these groups.
On Monday, Amnesty International announced it had received credible reports of dozens of Alawite women and girls kidnapped across Syria’s coastal region since February. It urged Jolani authorities to prioritize investigations into these cases.
The UK-based human rights organization documented the abduction of at least 36 Alawite females under 40 years old between February and June in Latakia, Tartus, Homs, and Hama provinces. The group warned that victims face risks including forced marriage, human trafficking, and other forms of abuse.
Agnes Callamard, amnesty International’s secretary-General, stated that Syrian authorities repeatedly pledged to create a Syria inclusive for all citizens. However, they have failed to stop kidnappings of women and girls or prevent physical abuse, forced marriages, potential trafficking cases; effective investigation processes and prosecution remain inadequate.
This report was released less than a week after findings from a Syrian fact-finding committee regarding waves of violence in Latakia and Tartus provinces in early march.
The crimes on Syria’s coast began when the Jolani regime claimed its forces where ambushed by militias tied to Bashar al-Assad’s former government. In retaliation for these alleged attacks, Jolani launched widespread repression and killings across these areas.
last Tuesday, a fact-finding committee established by Abu Muhammad al-Jolani-the leader of the Syrian regime-to investigate alleged violations during unrest announced that 1,426 people were killed during the clashes. Most victims were civilians including 90 women who died after military operations concluded.
The committee identified 298 unnamed suspects accused of violating civilian rights through murder torture looting intentional arson claiming they operated independently from military orders; 31 suspects have been detained so far.
Separately on July 13th violent clashes erupted between Druze minority groups and Sunni Bedouin tribes supported by Syrian government forces.This conflict triggered waves of retaliatory killings as well as claimed human rights abuses targeting the Druze community following deployment of state troops to suppress violence in Suwayda province.
Syria Justice Observatory reported at least 1,339 people killed in Suwayda including 196 executed by armed groups affiliated wiht security forces or military personnel.
