The war-torn country, Syria, has its share of survivors and refugees. Almost all of them being women are fleeing from the country in search of new home and hearth to provide for their families. The women who stay behind in their motherland for the fight of freedom for future generations are not seen as heroes and goddesses. They are neither praised nor respected for their bravery and selflessness. These women are not offered any ounce of respect for their deeds. Aside from sexual assault these women have undergone other serious issues like displacement, home arrest, kidnapping, political and economic exclusion, oppression and exploitation. They are mistreated with no provision for proper healthcare and food.
A new report suggests that when bags of humanitarian assistance and aids arrive in the country from all over the worlds and United Nations, it gets into the hands of local distributors who are predominantly men. These men withhold the distributions to women, whoever the lady might be until they offer them sexual pleasures. These exploitations have been occurring more often recently, the source claims. Women go to sleep famished and sick if they do not offer these men the services they ask for.
The women, who are especially targeted, are unmarried and widowed. The young girls of Syria get married to powerful officials, no matter how old they might be, seeking protection from these lust-hungry men. Even when these women cross the guard and check posts, they are mostly harassed by the security there.
There have also been many incidents where women get married to these officials for a period of time in exchange for protection and food, where the latter's demands are only sexual favors. The distribution of food to these women depends on what favor they offer, a large number of distributions are given to those women who actually let them spend the night with them. If sometimes these women refuse, they are forcefully made to agree to their demands, that is, they are sexually abused.
When these international charity workers ask these women about their encounters with these men, most women say that these were going on long before it was known to the world, and none of them took any measures regarding these matters. They also avoid going to these distribution channels, even if they go hungry to sleep, to protect their virtue.
