At least 93,000 people have been killed in Syria since the start of the conflict, according to latest United Nations figuresThis represents a rise of more than 30,000 since the UN last issued figures covering the period to November 2012At least 5,000 people have been dying in Syria every month since last July, the UN's human rights body saysBut it says these statistics are an underestimate as it believes many deaths have not been reportedOver 80% of those killed were men, but the UN's Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) says it has also documented the deaths of more than 1,700 children under the age of 10Continue reading the main story
Analysis

The latest figures from the UN show clearly that the Syrian conflict is by far the bloodiest and most enduring of all the Arab uprisings. It's the only one that's mutated into a full-scale, heavily militarised civil warThe casualty figures have risen dramatically, especially since the two biggest cities, Damascus and Aleppo, became caught up in the violence last July. Since then, the number of people killed has averaged more than 5,000 every month. Even at the height of the sectarian bloodletting in Iraq in 2006, the monthly death count only twice went over 3,000With no end in sight for what the UN Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay called the "drastically deteriorating pattern", the UN is braced not only for worsening casualty figures, but also for vast numbers of refugees joining those who have already flooded across the borders into neighbouring countriesThere were "cases of individual children being tortured and executed, and entire families, including babies, being massacred - which, along with this devastatingly high death toll, is a terrible reminder of just how vicious this conflict has become," said OHCHR head Navi PillayThe revised toll came the day after a separate global UN report called the number of deaths among Syrian children "unbearable"The study said government forces and rebels were using boys and girls as "suicide bombers or human shields"Children in Syria were suffering "maybe the heaviest toll" of anywhere in the world, said UN special representative Leila Zerrougui, who presented the findings "They are killed, they are maimed, they are recruited, they are detained, they are tortured", she told journalists in New YorkThe report accused Syrian troops of torturing children suspected of having links to rebel groupsBut it said armed opposition groups, including the Free Syrian Army, were also using children, both in combat and in support roles such as transporting supplies and loading cartridgesCeasefire call
OHCHR'S report said the biggest numbers of documented killings throughout the conflict have been recorded in the governorates of rural Damascus (17,800 deaths), Homs (16,400), and Aleppo (11,900)
UN human rights chief Navi Pillay: "There are well documented cases of individual children being tortured and executed"
The sharpest increases in deaths since November 2012 were recorded in the governorates which surround Damascus and Aleppo with 6,200 and 4,800 new documented deaths respectivelyOHCHR said the toll had been compiled by a non-profit organisation which specialises in statistical analysis, using the following steps:

The list was compiled using datasets from eight different sources, including figures from the Syrian government and activist groups
Each casualty was fully identified by the name of the victim, as well as the date and location of the death. Any reported killing that did not include at least these three elements was excluded
Each reported killing was compared to all the other reported killings in order to identify duplicates
The analysis was not able to differentiate consistently between combatants and non-combatants
OHCHR called for an immediate ceasefire "before tens of thousands more people are killed or injured"Ms Pillay said that "states with influence could, if they act collectively, do a lot more to bring the conflict to a swift end, thereby saving countless more lives""Civilians are bearing the brunt of widespread, violent and often indiscriminate attacks which are devastating whole swathes of major towns and cities, as well as outlying villages," Ms Pillay said"Government forces are shelling and launching aerial attacks on urban areas day in and day out, and are also using strategic missiles and cluster and thermobaric bombs"Opposition forces have also shelled residential areas, albeit using less fire-power, and there have been multiple bombings resulting in casualties in the heart of cities, especially Damascus," she went onMore on This Story
