Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
The on-going Civil War in Syria is one of the most devastating war in the recent history of mankind. It was started in early 2011 with a popular uprising for restoration of democracy in Syria; and it is dragging on till today without an end in-sight. The war has brought untold and a unimageble tragedies to men, women, children and aged people. Hundreds and hundreds of people were mowed down for reason not known to them and for no fault of their own. Even world’s most dreaded weapons, the chemical weapons, banned by the Geneva Convention were used for killing innocent men, women and children. The war has now thoroughly devastated the country as a result of which millions and millions of people flee to other places in other part of the world. Casualty had been mounting each passing day, there were rampant human right violations and manmade humanitarian crisis is dominating the entire length and breadth of the country. There was no question of winners and losers; for everyone is the war is the loser.
