Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel (Adalah) on Tuesday condemned Syrian President Bashar Assad's "brutal massacre" of protesters that has resulted in over 5,000 deaths.
In a press release, Adalah stated that Assad is in gross violation of international human rights law, specifically Article 7 of the Rome Statutes, Article 8 of the Treaty of Rome, and the Geneva Conventions. "The cruel treatment by the Assad regime of its citizens is a direct result of the lack of democracy and respect for human rights in the country," said the organization.
