Report methodology:
The report methodology relies on the investigation that were carried out by SNHR teams with families and local media activists. This report includes two eyewitnesses’ accounts, in addition to the pictures and videos we received from cooperating activists as we were unable to visit the targeted area. In this report, the names of eyewitnesses were changed per their request for security concerns.
