#1 firing artillery but not killing many

Deaths from the civil war in Syria dropped to about 11,000 in 2019 which is horrible (except that perhaps 10% or so were genuine terrorists whose death is a benefit to humanity) but not as horrible as the 70+k deaths in 2013 and 2014 (per the various monitoring groups).
