Four civilians killed, 25 others injured, in an air regime attack on Idlib city, November 29, 2024.

On November 29, 2024, fixed-wing Syrian regime forces warplanes fired multiple missiles at Idlib city, killing four civilians, while another 25 were injured, including eight children and six women. The attack also struck al-Adnani Gas Station, heavily damaging it and rendering it out of commission, while a number of cars were also damaged. Additionally, one of the missiles struck Salah al-Din al-Ayoubi School, partially destroying its perimeter fence and schoolyard, while the interior furnishing was heavily damaged. The area targeted is under the control of armed opposition factions and Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).

The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) notes that through this attack, Syrian regime forces have again unequivocally violated UN Security Council resolutions 2139 & 2254, both of which categorically prohibit indiscriminate attacks, as well as violating the rules of international humanitarian law on distinguishing between civilians and members. Such attacks aim solely to spread fear and panic among civilians, to drive them from their lands and homes, and to forcibly displace them. An estimated 6.5 million people are currently internally displaced in Syria.

The international community must put pressure on the Syrian regime and its allies to support a process of political transition. Pressure should be applied on all parties to compel them to launch such a transition within a period of no more than six months, so that millions of displaced people can be ensured a safe and stable return to their homes.
