Today, with great concern and condemnation, we received
reports of continued killings, torture, arbitrary detentions, abductions,
forced displacements and massacres using heavy weapons, armored vehicles,
helicopters, and terrorist bombings by Assad militias, in addition to
committing systematic and widespread violations of human rights against Syrian
citizens. These violations are a
flagrant deprivation of the Syrian people’s right to life, freedom of
expression, peaceful demonstrating, while being subjected to arbitrary arrest,
torture, forced displacement, and systemic destruction of some cities,
neighborhoods, and historic sites. In addition to destroying and burning homes,
forests, and crops to express barbarism, brutality, and extreme violence
through shelling using artillery, heavy weapons, and helicopters to face the
legitimate peaceful protests right in front of the entire world.
The number of those killed on Sunday, July 22, 2012, by
Assad forces reached more than 130, among them 6 children, 3 women, and 2
killed under torture. Of the fallen heroes, there were 56 in Damascus and
Damascus Suburbs, 18 in Aleppo, 13 in Daraa, 12 in Idlib, 10 in Homs, 11 in
Deir EzZor, 5 in Hama, 2 in Qunaitera, and one in each of Lattakia, Banyas, and

We, in the Human Right Bureau of the Syrian National
Council, extend our deepest condolences to the families of the fallen heroes,
wishes for the speedy recovery of those wounded, and wishes for the release of
the detained. We strongly condemn and denounce the behavior of the Assad regime
in carrying out the violence, killing, massacres, and crimes against humanity,
in addition to the arbitrary arrests, systemic torture, rape, forced
displacement, and kidnappings in facing the peaceful protests and legitimate
demands of the Syrian people who are expressing their desire for freedom and
their legitimate rights in toppling the criminal regime that has been stripped
of its legitimacy. We turn to human rights organizations, the Arab League, and the
Friends of Syria, and plead with them and the rest of the free world to work
immediately by pressuring the Assad regime for the purpose of achieving the
following:
- Declare the failure of the UN monitors mission, instead of
extending it, which shows the international community’s inability to achieve
anything; declare the failure of the Arab-International Kofi Annan plan,
because of the regime’s lack of commitment and Annan’s inability to deal with
it; respond to the lack of commitment to the initiative by issuing more
powerful and effective decisions with clearer and more time-bound executive
mechanisms pursuant to Chapter VII of the UN Charter because of the Russian and
Chinese vetoes, which has made it crucial that the Friends of Syria work
outside the framework of the Security Council to help the Syrian people in
protecting civilians and ousting the regime by imposing a no-fly zone and
establishing safe areas and buffers, and move to action rather than words in
supporting the Free Syrian Army; seriously lobby with each of Iran, Russia, and
China to take a more neutral position and stop their support of the criminal
regime; move quickly to cover humanitarian needs of the Syrian people; aid and
life the siege off the disaster stricken cities; expel all the regime’s
diplomats and ambassadors and sever all diplomatic relations with the regime.
We also demand that the UN Security Council immediately
adopts and implements the Human Rights Council’s latest decision regarding
referring the file of the regime’s officials responsible for committing the
crimes against humanity to the International Criminal Court and compelling the
regime to accept that an international investigation committee investigates the
massacres. We also plead with nations to which Syrians were forced to migrate
to treat the Syrian people in a humane and decent manner worthy of humans who
deserve freedom and dignity.
Furthermore, we invite the international community to assist those
countries which are hosting Syrian refugees.
