Syrian security forces, along with their allied groups, have been reported to have carried out brutal attacks resulting in the deaths of 973 civilians, including women and children, in coastal areas and the Latakia Mountains. The targeted community in these massacres is the Alawite group, known to have supported the former president Bashar al-Assad. The wave of violence erupted following an ambush, leading to severe crackdowns that have left a trail of destruction and heightened sectarian tensions in the region. These disturbing developments have raised serious concerns about the escalating humanitarian crisis in Syria.
