Truth behind Dahab: The child killed by Syrian security forces
ALBAWABA - With over 900 civilians reported dead due to the ongoing clashes in the Syrian coastal areas and the Latakia Mountains, a child called "Dahab" went viral across social media over claims that she was reportedly killed by Ahmed Al-Sharaa's Syrian security forces. According to Erem News, photos of the child started swarming social media on Saturday with rumors that she was killed due to the ongoing conflict in the country. Several reports indicated that the girl in the photos wasn't a Syrian child named "Dahab," but a famous Chinese child known for modeling for the Clothing retail company, SHEIN. الادعاء بأن هذه الصورة تعود لطفلة سورية تُدعى دهب منير علو، وأنها من بين الضحايا الذين قضوا في الساحل السوري خلال الساعات الماضية، هو ادعاء مضلل، إذ إن الصورة منشورة على الإنترنت في أوقات سابقة وخلال فترات مختلفة، وأقدمها يعود إلى ثلاث سنوات. — تَـأكّـدْ (@VeSyria) March 8, 2025 Her picture was first posted across social media in December last year. Several social media users expressed their anger towards individuals who shared the photo in question without doing research and accused them of spreading fake news that could have negatively impacted Ahmed Al-Sharaa's Syrian security forces. Fact-checking website, Taakad took to Musk's X (formerly known as Twitter) and wrote, "The claim that this photo is of a Syrian girl named Dahab Munir Alou, and that she is among the victims who died on the Syrian coast in the past hours, is a misleading claim." It stated further that the photo was published on the internet at a different date with the oldest one dating back to three years. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) noted that 39 massacres were committed since the escalation, sparked by attacks by Alawite militants on March 6 against forces of the Syrian Interior and Defense Ministries, fueling brutal killings, field executions, and ethnic cleansing operations which started on March 7.
