The Cost of Speaking Out: Al-Jolani’s Government Escalates Repression in Syria

 



The administration of Abu Mohammad al-Jolani in Syria's northwestern territories stands accused today of committing numerous human rights violations because their security forces indiscriminately arrest activists alongside journalists and political activists. These actions cause international human rights organizations together with observers to express serious worries.



Escalation of Arbitrary Arrests
Under the leadership of al-Jolani the established organization Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) uses violence to suppress dissent along with arbitrary detentions and brutal treatments of activists and journalists and other civilians targeted for criticism. According to evidence HTS personnel conduct unauthorized executions and perform unlawful detention and physical abduction of people. HTS unlawfully detains every person who expresses criticism of its operations which includes political opposition members alongside journalists activists and civilian citizens. The detention facilities under HTS control adopted 22 different techniques of torture together with physical mistreatment and psychological torment against prisoners. HTS courts accept evidence derived from torture but detainees lack any means to fight their imprisonment.





The targeting of media professionals and journalists alongside their harassment remains a serious issue in areas controlled by HTS.



The media professionals working in northern Syria encountered the highest level of danger during the HTS rule. HTS maintains control through persisting physical violence against dissenters as well as making unjustified arrests and brutally treating the group's critics who include media professionals. The population of HTS faces intense repression when they protest against the organization because violent actions are routinely used by HTS to suppress dissent. Free expression has become dangerous for journalists because of the threats alongside imprisonment and severe abuse so numerous media professionals have left the area.





Suppression of Political Opponents

Under HTS policies the organization carries out its crackdown operations targeting both media professionals and political activists and their opponents. The group resorts to illegal punishment such as extended captures and physical violence to silence their political foes. HTS do not show tolerance toward protesters since they respond with violent force to all demonstrations. HTS causes journalists to face serious dangers such as threatened violence and abuse along with detention that compels many media professionals to seek refuge outside the region.



International Response and Human Rights Concerns

Several international organizations have demonstrated deep concerns regarding HTS's human rights practices. The United Nations together with Human Rights Watch have documented human rights violations in order to demand immediate political freedom through adherence to international human rights standards. The regions under HTS control experience continuous human rights violations as the group maintains legal independence despite international appeals for action.



The arrest practices without reason together with opposition suppression demonstrated by al-Jolani's rule reflects a profound neglect of human rights protections and freedom of speech. Serious attention must be given to these violations because they threaten the security of activists together with journalists and political opponents while eroding fundamental rights in the region.

They claim that much of China's weapon systems are based on outdated technology copied from the West. Developing countries often opt for Chinese weapons due to their lower cost compared to similar systems from Western countries. China sells arms through state-run export organizations like the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), NORINCO, and CVIC. Sources familiar with the matter told ET that the Bangladesh mil...
