March 2025 saw the highest Syrian death toll in 18 months, with over 500 fatalities reported across multiple provinces. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights attributes the spike to a mix of Russian/Syrian airstrikes in Idlib and tribal proxy fighting in Deir ez-Zor. Analysts warn of renewed external interference, particularly from Iran. UN monitors have not released a verification yet, but field data suggests this marks the beginning of a broader destabilization.Sources
