Er vel minimum på lik linje totalt sett hittil, men Ukrainakrigen kommer til å overgå totalen fra Syria om krigen fortsetter. Og ja det på 1 år i stedet for 10. : Estimates of the total number of deaths in the Syrian Civil War , by opposition activist groups, vary between 503,064 and about 613,407 as of March 2023.[1] On 23 April 2016, the United Nations and Arab League Envoy to Syria put out an estimate of 400,000 that had died in the war.[2] Based on Syria’s pre-war population of 20.8 million from 2011,[3] this represented approximately 2% of Syria’s pre-war population. In late September 2021, the United Nations stated it had documented the deaths of at least 350,209 people in the conflict between March 2011 and March 2021, but cautioned the figure was “certainly an under-count”.[4]
By February 2017, Amnesty International estimated between 5,000 and 13,000 people had been executed in government prisons, and thousands more people are reported to have died due to torture by the Syrian government.[5]
By mid-March 2022, opposition activist group the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported the number of children killed in the conflict had risen to 25,286, and that 15,237 women had also been killed.[1]
On 28 June 2022, the United Nations Human Rights Office (OHCHR) said that 306,887 civilians had been killed in Syria during the conflict between March 2011 and March 2021, representing about 1.5% of its pre-war population. This figure did not include indirect and non-civilian deaths.[6][7] As of December 2022, according to the GCR2P NGO, a minimum of 580,000 people is estimated to have been killed; with 13 million Syrians being displaced and 6.7 million refugees forced to flee Syria. Government forces reportedly arrested and tortured numerous repatriated refugees, subjecting them to forced disappearances and extrajudicial executions.[8]
As of February 2015, the UNHCR designated the conflict as the “world’s worst humanitarian crisis”, while the head of the UNHRC’s commission for Syria stated the Syrian government was responsible for the majority of civilian casualties up to that point.[9] The pro-opposition Syrian Network for Human Rights estimated the Syrian government and its foreign allies were responsible for 91% of the total civilian casualties.[10][11][12] Additionally, according to the SOHR, 87% of all civilian deaths it had documented were caused by government or pro-government forces.[13]
