The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights based in London has announced that at least 1383 civilians have lost their lives in the recent violent incidents in the past few days.

During four days of clashes between security forces and loyalist groups to the deposed Assad in Latakia and Tartus, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights stated that at least 1383 civilians lost their lives.

The London-based observatory indicated that in the violent incidents, at least 1383 civilians lost their lives, the majority of whom were Alawites.

It was reported that most of the lifeless bodies were found in agricultural fields or houses.

The recent casualties were recorded in the coastal provinces of Latakia and Tartus, as well as neighboring Hama.

According to official figures, at least 231 security personnel lost their lives in the clashes, while according to the Observatory, 250 people from Assad’s forces died.

Syrian President Ahmed Sha’a has stated that the pro-Assad groups are responsible for the events in Syria, but also pointed out that revenge murders have been committed, saying, “We will not allow those who spill blood, even if they are our closest, to go unpunished.”
