Torture

A humanitarian report to be released Thursday addresses the dire medical situation in Syria and reports how doctors from all over the world—including here in Chicago—are being arrested and tortured simply for trying to save lives. “This is my fifth visit into Aleppo which is considered one of the most dangerous cities in the world, especially for healthcare workers,” said Chicago-area critical care specialist Dr. Zaher Sahloul.

SNHR documented the killing of nine medics as follows: Three doctors (including one doctor who was tortured to death. It was confirmed that doctors are subjected to a more brutal torture inside the Syrian regime detention centers.) Six medics (including two ladies and one medic who was tortured to death).
