The Syrian Network for Human Rights started documenting abuses under Assad in 2011 and has continued to release monthly reports on arbitrary detentions. Over the course of 2025, the group documented 16 deaths in detention under the new government.
In its latest report, released in early December, SNHR called on Syria’s new leaders “to establish legal regulations that will put an end to the harrowing era of arbitrary arrests and enforced disappearances.”
