8:06 pm
but the syrian regime is facing threats on multiple fronts. i remain on the end of the declared candidate in syrian early, 2019 by the joint forces of the us. and as the did not mean the end of the year, had this organisation wish to pose the threats and secrete the challenge, especially after the change of statutes of the stomach state, which is largely focused on the site attack. the country remains divided along front lines and millions remain displaced. and while some host countries are starting to promote their return, human rights groups are again warning. it is not safe in the absence of certain conditions. in a report, human rights watch said it interviewed 65, return knees or family members. it documented $21.00 cases of arrest, an arbitrary detention, 13 cases of torture. 3 kidnappings, 5 extra judicial killings. 17 enforced disappearances. and one case of reported
