Syria has been fighting foreign-sponsored militancy since March 2011.

The United Nations (UN)�s Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura estimated in August last year that more than 400,000 people had been killed in the war until then. The UN has stopped its official casualty count in the war-torn country, citing its inability to verify the figures it receives from various sources.
