A recent UN report noted that in Syria, some 1,700 children, including hundreds of Yazidi children, have been recruited by non-governmental groups, primarily the PKK and its offshoots, since 2022.

The report noted Secretary General Antonio Guterres' view: "I am seriously concerned about the recruitment and use of children by the PKK. I call on them to stop recruiting and to release all minors from their ranks".

This refers to the Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which control the northeast of the republic, including the vast majority of the oil fields. In their activities the SDF formations rely on American military support, and the UN attributes the recruitment of 1,274 children to them.

In addition, during June, the U.S. military contingent in Syria was reinforced: columns of armored vehicles, trucks with ammunition and gasoline tankers were sent to the areas of Rumaylan, al-Shaddadah and Tell Beydar.
