Syria regime forces desecrate tombs in Idlib

Activists posted a new video on social media showing Syrian regime forces desecrating tombs in a cemetery in the countryside of Idlib, Arabi21.com reported on Friday.

The Syrian regime forces appear in the video destroying the tombstones and insulting the dead, because they belonged to the opposition of the Syrian regime.

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Basil Al-Sawadi, from the Syrian regime forces, lead a group of his comrades to the houses of his father and brothers and tormented them inside their homes.

They tore up documents and certificates and insulted his father and his brothers, as three of them had been killed by the Assad forces during the revolution.

Since the recapture of Idlib and Aleppo at the start of this year, several videos emerged showing the Assad forces desecrating tombs.

Recently, Russia and Turkey signed a ceasefire agreement between the opposition and the Assad regime in the north of Syria, including Idlib. Assad regime forces have already breached the agreement several times.
