on 11:48:00 PM
Death toll in Syria reached, 191,000. The number of dead in Syria’s civil war more than doubled in the past year to at least 191,000, the United Nations human rights office. Ms. Pillay said in a statement that accompanied the report, which observed that many killings in Syria were undocumented: “Tragically, it is probably an underestimate of the real total number of people killed during the first three years of this murderous conflict.”

“Tragically, it is probably an underestimate of the real total number of people killed during the first three years of this murderous conflict.”
She further added that, “Men, including combatants and civilians, accounted for more than 80 percent of the casualties, according to the report. Most of the documented deaths did not specify the age of the victims, but where that information was available, the report identified 8,803 people under the age of 18, including 2,165 children under 10.”
