Act now, please help save fellow Christians from genocide!
The British human right group has said that of the death toll, just under half-33,278-were civilians.
Back in August of 2014 the United Nations estimated that the total death toll in Syria was 191,000. However, numerous activist groups both in Syria and abroad believe that the number is much higher.

The United States and a coalition of other nations, including Canada, Australia and Great Britain, have joined in the war as antagonists of the Islamic State and some al-Qaeda affiliated groups.
