ICMP Syria Program

SYRIA PROGRAM

Estimates of the number of people missing from Syria run as high as 200,000. They include persons missing as a consequence of summary execution, arbitrary and incommunicado detention, kidnapping and abduction, enslavement, sarin gas attacks, forced displacement and migration, as well as other human rights abuses. The fighting and day-to-day ravages of war have also resulted in combatants and civilians of many nationalities going missing. Hundreds of thousands of Syrians have sought refuge in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey, or have joined the dangerous migration across the Mediterranean. The migration from Syria over the last decade has also resulted in missing persons cases.
