Call for an international investigation into missing Alawite women in Syria

Background

We ask the UK Government to call for a independent international investigation into reports of disappearances, alleged abductions, coercion, and forced sectarian conversion of Alawite women and girls in Syria, to press for the protection of minorities, and for accountability.

Additional details

Many families have raised concerns about missing girls in Syria. Some families dispute videos and statements claiming relatives left voluntarily, alleging coercion and intimidation. Reports from media and human rights groups have increased fear among minorities. We believe the UK should support human rights, the protection of minorities, transparent investigations, and accountability for any abuses.
