The guards deliberately shot and killed two boys and a man in Idlib, while they were present in farmlands adjacent to the Syria-Turkey barrier. The reason for the shootings remains unknown.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The excessive and wanton use of violence is symptomatic of the Border Guards\u2019 practices. In addition to shooting civilians within the Syrian borders, the guards assault, brutally beat, and detain Syrians captured while attempting to cross into Turkey illegally.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">STJ is working on an extensive report that documents the violations perpetrated by the Turkish Border Guards, which will be available in March 2022.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u201cThey Killed Him in Cold Blood\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On 30 January 2022, Turkish Border Guards shot and killed a teenager, Abdullah Khaled Eskeef (14). The boy and his brother were collecting crops in farmland in in Dorriyeh village, in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/Darkush,+Syria\/@35.9914221,36.3921165,529m\/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x1525b061d6b13a17:0x9ff8872388229810!8m2!3d35.991705!4d36.3938121\">Darkush<\/a> district, near the Syria-Turkey border. The guards also opened fire on the civilians who rushed to help the wounded child, hampering efforts to save his life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">STJ reached out to the bereaved father, Khaled Eskeef. He recounted:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u201c<\/strong>On 30 January, my two young sons went to the groves adjacent to the border, near the Dorriyeh village. They went there to collect olives and apricots. The farmland is nearly 2 KM away from the border. The boys were riding a donkey. When they finished work, they set off for home at about 12: 15 P.M. (local time). On their way back, border guards started shooting at them. My son Abdullah was injured. My other son hid somewhere and tried to pull his wounded brother to a safe place. He failed because the border guards shot at him every time he reached out for his brother. He started shouting, asking for help from the locals in the area. I was working in a nearby field, so I rushed there. However, we could not pull Abdullah until half an hour later. The bullets of the border guards prevented us from reaching him, as if they wanted to make sure he was dead. We managed to take him to the al-Rahma Hospital in Darkush. But he died. The bullet entered his chest near the heart and left through the side . . . my son was struggling for life in front of my eyes, and I could not take him to the hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The father added:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0\u201cThey killed my son in cold blood and prevented us from taking him to the hospital . . . Since the shooting, the people have been afraid of approaching their fields near the border. They must find a solution, and the Turks must leave us be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">STJ obtained the medical report issued by the al-Rahma Hospital in Darkush. The report confirmed that the bullet stopped Abdullah\u2019s heart and prevented him from breathing, while all attempts at cardiopulmonary resuscitation failed. A copy of the report is attached below, tagged image 4.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Abdullah\u2019s death by the fire of the Turkish Border Guards is not the first. STJ reached out to a local official in the Dorriyeh village, who narrated:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cSince 2021 up to 19 February 2022, we have recorded the deaths of over six persons within the Syrian territories, perpetrated by the Turkish Border Guards. The Turkish Gendarmerie (Border Guards) use live bullets and deliberately shoot people, intending to kill them.\u00a0 The majority of the village\u2019s people depend on the yield from their agricultural lands, located adjacent to the border. The Turks are targeting everyone . . . the Gendarmerie\u2019s bullets do not spare children, women, or elderly. There must be a serious solution for this problem because the villagers are poor and the fields are their only source of income.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u201cThe Bullet Struck Below His Heart\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On 10 February 2022, Turkish Border Guards shot and killed a teenager, Rashid al-Rifa\u2019i (12).

The two were searching for wood far enough from the Turkish border. However, there is this Turkish Gendarmerie Guard Point, which overlooks the area. The guards shot the child while he and his father were heading back to the al-Anssar camp where they live. The bullet hit below the heart and left through the other side. The child fell to the ground. The locals rushed him to the makeshift clinic immediately, which was barely 100 m away from the location where the child was shot. He died despite all the doctors\u2019 efforts to save his life.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u201cTwo Bullets, One Was Lodged in His Head\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On 21 February 2022, Turkish Border Guards shot and killed the internally displaced Abdulmutaleb al-Khsarah (55).
