The Syrian Network for Human Rights has documented thousands of children forcibly disappeared by the Assad regime. Its earlier count of at least 3,700 children is likely conservative; during my own reporting, the network’s director, Fadel Abdulghany, told me that improved access and survivor testimony may bring the figure closer to 5,300. Each number represents a separate uncertainty inflicted on a family. Each may conceal a different path through the same system.
