More than a decade after popular uprisings gave way to civil war, Syria again tops the Peoples under Threat index in 2021 – the seventh time in a row. Farcical presidential elections in May 2021 occurred in the two-thirds of the country under government control and against the backdrop of tens of thousands of perceived political opponents having been arrested, tortured or disappeared since the conflict began in 2011. More than half the pre-war population has been displaced, either as internally displaced persons (IDPs) within Syria or as refugees outside the country, and an estimated 500,000 people have been killed in the conflict – the large majority by the government, assisted by Iran, various militias and crucial Russian military assistance. Large-scale fighting has gradually declined, with Islamist rebels formerly affiliated with al-Qaeda confined to Idlib province, ISIS resorting mainly to hit-and-run attacks, Turkish and Turkey-backed Syrian opposition forces positioned across northern Syria, and Kurdish-led fighters controlling the northeast. In this patchwork of hostilities, civilians remain extremely vulnerable to ongoing armed confrontations.
