Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect (GCR2P).
„We should not reach the point in this conflict where people become numb to the atrocious killing of civilians. The increasingly brutal nature of the conflict makes international efforts to halt the bloodshed imperative […] but we need a much greater sense of urgency,“ the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay, said today. She also expressed alarm at reports of a major military build-up around the western town of Qusayr, saying she feared further atrocities if the area was overrun. According to her Office (OHCHR), Government forces and pro-Government militias around the area have been displacing local civilian population, in preparation of what could be a large-scale attack to uproot the armed opposition.

Pillay urges greater attention to atrocities in #Syria, warns of threat to #Qusayr

„Reports of massacres allegedly carried out by government forces and pro government militias in recent days should spur the international community to act to find a solution to the conflict and to ensure those responsible are made to account for their crimes,“ says UN human rights chief Navi #Pillay , also citing „direct targeting of key life-sustaining entities such as bakeries and pharmacies, hospitals and schools.“ 

“But the disgraceful disregard for the protection of #civilians is not restricted to the Government side,” she adds. “The scope of violations by anti-government armed groups has also increased alarmingly.” More: http://bit.ly/11Yisbr


#سوريا: بيلاي تحثّ على إيلاء مزيدا من الاهتمام للفظائع التي تحدث، وتحذّر من تهديد القصير

„تقارير المجازر المُزعم تنفيذها من قبل قوات الحكومة السورية والمليشيات الموالية للحكومة في الأيام الأخيرة من شأنها أن تحفز المجتمع الدولي للتحرك لإيجاد حل للصراع وضمان أنّ المسؤولين عن الانتهاكات الخطيرة لحقوق الإنسان سوف يواجهون المساءلة عن جرائمهم،“ قالت المفوضة السامية للأمم المتحدة لحقوق الإنسان نافي بيلاي. كما أعربت عن „استهداف مباشرة كيانات إدامة الحياة الرئيسية مثل المخابز والصيدليات والمستشفيات والمدارس.

„ولكن التجاهل الفاضح لحماية المدنيين لا يقتصر على الجانب الحكومي“. وأضافت المفوضة السامية „إنّ ازدياد نطاق الانتهاكات على أيدي الجماعات المسلحة المناهضة للحكومة أيضا ينذر بالخطر.“
