More than 300,000 civilians were killed in one decade in Syria, the "highest estimate yet of conflict-related deaths" in a civil war that started in 2011, according to the United Nations.
The figure represents 83 civilian deaths, including nine women and 18 children, every day for 10 years to 2021, according to an extensive report released by the UN Human Rights Council.
"The conflict-related casualty figures in the report are not simply a set of abstract numbers but represent individual human beings," said Michelle Bachelet, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.
