Syria Faces Chaos in Death and Inheritance Records After War

According to a report by the Syrian Network for Human Rights issued at the end of 2024, the regime turned the process of obtaining civil documents from a basic right into a tool of control and blackmail. The report confirms that security forces interfere in issuing or denying death and inheritance documents, often demanding bribes and “security approvals”. This corruption has deprived millions of Syrians of education, healthcare, and property rights.
