Eight anniversary of massacre by ISIS | Women and children among nearly 40 civilians killed during wedding party in Al-Hasakah
SOHR renews its call for bringing the perpetrators and those involved in killing Syrian people to justice
On October 3, 2016, ISIS committed a horrific massacre in Sanabel wedding hall in Al-Hasakah city, where an explosion took place during a wedding party attended by tens of civilians. The attack left 37 civilians, including 12 children and women, dead and tens others injured.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) would like to bring to mind heinous massacres committed against innocent and peaceful Syrian civilians by all conflicting and warring powers in Syrian territory, especially since killing of Syrians has been still continuing for over a decade.
We, at SOHR, renew our calls to bring all those responsible and those who aided and abetted the killing of Syrian people to justice. We also appeal to the international community and united nations to intensify their efforts to reach a political settlement which could potentially put an end to bloodshed in Syria.
