After more than a decade, the Syrian civil war still rages on. While recent judgements in Germany against state torturers of the Assad regime show progress in addressing crimes committed in Syria, the Syrian civil war still has many blind spots. In the Afrin region of northeastern Syria, crimes against the predominantly Kurdish population have often been overlooked. Thus, ECCHR, together with survivors and Syrians for Truth and Justice (STJ), recently filed a criminal complaint in Germany, calling for investigations into the crimes of pro-Turkish militias in Afrin. Learn more about this case and others in this newsletter.
