Syria death toll 384,0000 after 9 years of war: monitor

At least 384,000 people have died in Syria, including more than 116,000 civilians, since the war began in March 2011, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights war monitor said Saturday.

Sparked by deadly repression of peaceful pro-democracy protests, the conflict has since turned into a complicated war involving rebel factions, jihadist groups and foreign powers.
