During December 2025, a high toll of casualties was recorded in areas under the control of Syria’s Transitional Government. A total of 181 people were killed, including 17 women, 13 children, and 3 girls, in separate incidents across different regions.

Statistics monitored by ANHA agency show that December, the final month of the past year, witnessed a noticeable escalation in violence.

This resulted from various incidents, including attacks carried out by Transitional Government forces, assassinations, family and tribal conflicts, armed clashes, security operations, as well as explosions caused by remnants of war such as landmines and cluster munitions.

The incidents were distributed across the cities of Aleppo, Damascus and its countryside, Latakia, Tartous, Hama, Homs, Deir ez-Zor, Daraa, Sweida, and Idlib. This reflects the widening scope of violence in different areas under the control of Transitional Government forces, as well as other areas occupied by Turkey and its mercenaries.

The statistics included victims among women and children from various communities, most notably Alawites. They also documented the discovery of a mass grave containing the remains of eight people, including a child and a woman, in the village of Turkan, the city of Al-Safira in the Aleppo countryside.

It is worth noting that last November saw the killing of 170 people, including 13 women and 21 children, in areas under the control of the Transitional Government and the Turkish occupation.

According to military and political analysts, these figures indicate that the security situation in Syria remains fragile, with casualties continuing to fall at an almost daily rate amid the widespread availability of weapons, security chaos, and worsening humanitarian risks as the year draws to a close marked by violence and instability.
