Violence & revenge killings continued in areas loyal to ousted former leader Bashar al-Assad on Sunday. Hundreds of people have reportedly fled their homes in the coastal provinces of Latakia and Tartus - strongholds of Assad support. Local residents have described scenes of looting & mass killings, including of children.
In Hai Al Kusour, a predominantly Alawite neighbourhood in the coastal city of Banias, residents say the streets are filled with scattered bodies, piled up and covered in blood. Men of different ages were shot dead there, witnesses said. The Alawite sect is an offshoot of Shia Islam & makes up around 10% of Syria's population, which is majority Sunni Muslim. Assad belongs to the sect. People were too scared to even look out of their windows on Friday.
Internet connection is unstable, connected they learned of their neighbours' deaths from Facebook. A man, Ayman Fares, told BBC he was saved by recent imprisonment. He posted a video on Facebook in August 2023 criticising Assad for his corrupt rule & was arrested soon & only released by Islamist-led forces who freed prisoners after Assad's fall last December.
