The Strangulation of Homs

Homs was at the heart of the Syrian revolution, serving as an example and inspiration to Syrians across the country. People from different walks of life, ethnicities and religious groups came together to call for the fall of the Assad Regime. Documents collected by CIJA’s Syrian investigators demonstrate the premeditated response of the Syrian Regime, who quickly escalated its suppression of protesters to a tightly organised crackdown of extreme brutality.

A small selection of those documents – issued by the senior-most members of the Syrian regime – are published in this report, which details the Regime’s response from the first days of protest through to the siege of Baba Amro.
