💨 Abstract

A Reuters investigation revealed that over 1,479 Syrian Alawites were killed in a series of attacks from March 7-9, with dozens still missing. The killings were coordinated and carried out by men linked to Syria's new leaders in Damascus. Journalists gathered data through interviews, social media, and on-the-ground visits, plus verified urban legends and specified army involvement. Though the U.N. and other organizations provided differing death tolls, none matched the Reuters findings.
