#Syria: Pillay urges investigation into alleged executions by anti-government armed groups in #KhanAlAssal

„Based on the analysis by my team to date, we believe armed opposition groups in one incident – documented by a video – executed at least 30 individuals, the majority of whom appeared to be soldiers,“ says UN #HumanRights chief Navi Pillay. „There needs to be a thorough independent investigation to establish whether war crimes have been committed. And those responsible for such crimes should be brought to #justice.“ More: http://sm.ohchr.org/13eEsPt

#سوريا: بيلاي تدعو الى التحقيق في عمليات الإعدام المتهمه بارتكابها جماعات مسلحه معارضة للحكومة في منطقة خان العسل
 
„استنادا إلى تحليل فريقي حتى الآن، نحن نعتقد أنّ جماعات المعارضة المسلحة قد قامت بإعدام 30 شخصاً على الأقل، يبدو أن أغلبيتهم من الجنود ، في حادث واحد تمّ توثيقه في مقطع مصور،“ قالت مفوضة الأمم المتحدة  السامية لحقوق الإنسان نافي بيلاي. „يجب أن يكون هناك تحقيق مستقل وشامل لتحديد ما إذا كانت جرائم حرب قد ارتكبت. وأولئك المسؤولين عن هذه الجرائم يجب أن يُقدموا إلى العدالة“. للمزيد: http://sm.ohchr.org/16o6x9o

has produced a short 4-page overview of the report on State Responsibility and Prevention:

The Report concludes by recalling both past and ongoing failures to prevent atrocities, particularly in the case of Syria, which serves as a tragic reminder of the consequences of the failure of the State and international community to prevent atrocities.

The Report notes that the outlined measures are not completely new, with many States already implementing the policy options, even if not in the name of atrocities prevention. What is needed, however, is to ensure a concerted, comprehensive, and inclusive review of risks, capacity and actionsthat can be undertaken to strengthen prevention.

The Secretary-General indicates his intension to hold a follow up meeting with Member States, regional arrangements, and civil society on the status of implementation of the Report’s recommendations. With regard to the theme of next year’s dialogue, the Report includes the subject of Pillar II, capacity building responsibilities of the international community, as an option.
