The death toll reached 14,093 in Syria since the protests in the country began in March, 2011.
London-based Syria Human Rights Watch Organization stated on Wednesday that 14,093 had been killed, especially in Homs, during the operations and fire opened by Syrian security forces since March 18, 2011.
1,012 of them were children, and 865 were women, added the organization.
A ceasefire plan, which was presented by UN-Arab League Special Envoy to Syria Kofi Annan to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad on March 10 and accepted by him on March 27, came into effect on April 12. Assad's government has been accused of failing to abide by key terms of the truce plan, including pulling all forces from urban areas and allowing peaceful demonstrations.
Meanwhile, since the ceasefire came into effect on April 12, 1,881 people have been killed in Syria.
