More than 150,000 people have been killed in Syria since the conflict began in March 2011, a monitoring group said in a new toll released on Tuesday.But it isn't a high priority. Much more important to pressure Israel to release murderers for "peace."
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said it had documented the deaths of 150,344 people, 51,212 of them civilians, including nearly 7,985 children.
The group said 37,781 members of the armed opposition had been killed in the fighting, including militants from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, and al-Qaeda affiliate al-Nusra Front.
A total of 58,480 regime forces, including more than 35,000 soldiers had also been killed.
Among those killed fighting on the government side were 364 members of Lebanon's Shiite Hezbollah movement, the Observatory added.
Another 2,871 people were recorded as having died but their identities remained unknown, the group said.
