Repression, but it’s own country people also experience limited political freedoms, authoritarian
rule, agricultural crisis and wide spread corruption, In 2011 some protesters began calling for
political reform and an end to the state violence but the government responded with brutal force
and escalate the conflict into a full-scale civil war. The supporting evidence that the government
of Syria did a heavy-handed tactics which includes using violence against the protesters, it can
be found in numerous reports, While the military of the opposition and the other extremist
groups further more made the issue more complicated and turned it into a multi-faced struggle

east regions, Turkey, Lebanon, and Jordan this countries are the one who shouldered the
burden of hosting millions of Syrian refugees, they welcome this refugees in their country
