The Civil uprising phase of the Syrian civil war was an early stage of protests and violence in the Syrian conflict, lasting from March to end of July 2011. The uprising evolved from initially minor protests, beginning as early as January 2011, as a response to the regional Arab Spring, government corruption and human rights abuses. The uprising phase was marked by massive anti-regime opposition demonstrations against the Ba'athist regime of Bashar al-Assad, meeting with police and military violence, massive arrests and brutal crack down, resulting in hundreds of mortal casualties and thousands of wounded.

abstract
  • The Civil uprising phase of the Syrian civil war was an early stage of protests and violence in the Syrian conflict, lasting from March to end of July 2011. The uprising evolved from initially minor protests, beginning as early as January 2011, as a response to the regional Arab Spring, government corruption and human rights abuses. The uprising phase was marked by massive anti-regime opposition demonstrations against the Ba'athist regime of Bashar al-Assad, meeting with police and military violence, massive arrests and brutal crack down, resulting in hundreds of mortal casualties and thousands of wounded. Despite Bashar al-Assad's attempts to pacify the protests with massive crackdown and use of censorship on one hand and concessions on the other, by the end of April, it was clear the situation was getting out of his control and the Syrian government deployed numerous troops on the ground. The civil uprising phase created the platform for emergence of militant opposition movements and massive defections from the Syrian Army, which gradually transformed the conflict from a civil uprising to an armed rebellion, and later a civil war. The rebel Free Syrian Army was created on July 29, 2011, and marked the establishment of formal military resistance to the Assad government. From then on, the struggle took shape of armed insurgency with civil resistance disbanded and opposition members turning to arms.
