Syria: 165 cases of abduction of Kurdish citizens since the beginning of 2025

Armed groups in the name of public security and multiple security agencies continue to carry out more arrests and kidnappings of Kurdish civilians, as the rates of violence, crime, kidnappings, bombings, assassinations and unidentified bodies have increased throughout the Syrian regions.

The Documentation Center team confirms that it is in contact with the families and close associates of the abductees and that the incidents of kidnapping of citizens take place at checkpoints and during the storming of villages and towns not based on judicial warrants from the Public Prosecutor, and most of the arrests are carried out illegally and arbitrarily. These arrests contain a series of egregious human rights violations, and the majority of detainees cannot be contacted after their detention or find out their fate.

Most of the accusations against the abductees are unsubstantiated and malicious.

Since the beginning of this year (2025), Syria has witnessed the abduction of more than 165 Kurdish citizens whose names we have been able to document, while the actual number is more, especially since there are names that their families have reserved to mention, in addition to arrests that we have not been able to reach, and the killing of civilians under torture, and multiple cases of violation have been followed up and documented.
