[00:01:09] Hello, dear viewers.
[00:01:12] that contributes to making peace in Welcome to a detailed news bulletin from Syrian
[00:01:16] News. The Minister of Foreign Affairs
[00:01:19] and Expatriates, Asaad Al-Shaibani, discussed with his Turkish counterpart, Hakan Fidan, in
[00:01:23] and sovereignty, and to pressure the capital Ankara, ways to strengthen bilateral relations between
[00:01:26] the two friendly countries and agreed to establish
[00:01:30] a Supreme Coordination Council between Syria and Turkey
[00:01:32] and discuss accelerating the activation of the
[00:01:35] Four Seas Committee. Al-Shaibani confirmed in a press conference
[00:01:39] with Fidan that Damascus and Ankara place joint
[00:01:42] economic and political issues among
[00:01:46] their priorities.
[00:01:49] Today we discussed moving the company towards a solid institutional
[00:01:53] structure through the establishment of a high strategic
[00:01:56] coordination mechanism which will transform agreements.
[00:02:00] Political into clear work plans and actual projects on
[00:02:05] and Iraq to international the ground, and ensure the preservation of our gains away from the region's
[00:02:08] The general road's infrastructure fluctuations, to be crowned by the announcement of the Supreme Coordinating
[00:02:13] and God willing, the next plan is to pave Council between the two countries, which addresses all common issues and in various
[00:02:17] fields. And based on this political
[00:02:20] will, we have placed our joint commercial and economic
[00:02:23] files at the forefront of our priorities.
[00:02:27] We discussed reactivating
[00:02:28] Despite international efforts, economic and commercial agreements, in addition to the
[00:02:31] last and important step between
[00:02:33] in all cities and towns in the two central banks in the two countries, which established
[00:02:36] a solid foundation for economic and financial movement
[00:02:40] between the two countries. Both Damascus
[00:02:43] and Ankara realize that field stability and continuous
[00:02:46] success in combating terrorism are the cornerstone of this
[00:02:50] partnership,
[00:02:52] structure is fragmented, and this is embodied in Damascus's decision to extend
[00:02:55] the state's authority as a tangible reality by effectively ending any presence
[00:02:59] of weapons outside the legal framework,
[00:03:02] which was achieved through peaceful dialogue and agreement
[00:03:05] that unified institutions to be the largest investment in neighborhood
[00:03:09] security. A unified Syria, free of terrorism and militias,
[00:03:12] constitutes the most effective barrier for protecting common borders.
[00:03:16] The Minister of Foreign Affairs
[00:03:20] we demand that they expand and Expatriates added that work is underway to complete the railway
[00:03:23] link project between Syria, Turkey, Saudi Arabia,
[00:03:26] and Jordan, stressing the condemnation of
[00:03:29] any attack on the Arab Gulf countries
[00:03:32] and considering their stability a fundamental pillar of
[00:03:35] the regional security system.
[00:03:38] Today we discussed accelerating the activation of the Four Seas Committee.
[00:03:41] Geography and history dictate
[00:03:45] of Syria, but there is a special that Syria should be the shortest and most
[00:03:46] the context of enhancing communication viable node in global
[00:03:50] So we worked on trade maps. We are confidently pushing towards the completion of the strategic railway link project
[00:03:54] in partnership between Syria, Turkey, the Kingdom of Saudi
[00:03:57] Arabia, and Jordan.
[00:04:00] Syria's role in this path represents an actual geographical
[00:04:03] and economic bridge that translates
[00:04:06] and reinforces its role as an active diplomatic bridge in
[00:04:09] the region. We will build on this positive model
[00:04:12] to activate joint technical committees and manage
[00:04:17] a two-way road. Last our water resources in a way that serves the interests of the two peoples.
[00:04:20] on studying In the midst of our joint development endeavors, precise regional
[00:04:24] developments impose themselves, specifically the repercussions of the ongoing
[00:04:28] war and confrontations between the United States
[00:04:32] dollars. Work will begin soon, God willing. and Iran. Syria's position stems from active diplomacy in protecting our national
[00:04:36] interests and sparing the region the woes
[00:04:39] of sliding into an open
[00:04:41] receiving bids from conflict. From this principled standpoint, we express
[00:04:44] our strong condemnation of any strikes or attacks targeting the sisterly
[00:04:47] Arab Gulf countries. Neutralizing Gulf security from
[00:04:51] this confrontation is an utmost necessity, and the stability of these
[00:04:54] Also, the Al-Jazira road from sisterly countries is an integral part of the regional
[00:04:58] security system. For his part, Turkish
[00:05:01] Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan affirmed his country's
[00:05:05] keenness to support Syria and cooperate with it in various
[00:05:08] fields, stressing that Syria's security
[00:05:11] and stability are a necessity for the region's
[00:05:14] stability.
[00:05:19] Ankara is working to develop relations with Syria and increase
[00:05:23] trade volume between the two countries, and increase the number of crossings and support
[00:05:26] the infrastructure of banks and transportation
[00:05:29] and reconstruction projects.
[00:05:32] Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Syria to develop
[00:05:35] transportation and linking roads between our countries and seeks
[00:05:39] to raise the level of relations with Syria through projects.
[00:05:50] cooperation with Damascus particularly includes the files of economy
[00:05:54] and combating terrorism, which ensures Syria's security
[00:05:57] and stability and the stability of the region
[00:06:00] as a whole. He stressed the necessity of stopping Israeli
[00:06:04] aggressions against Syria and respecting its territorial
[00:06:14] specifically on the economy and counter-terrorism files, which
[00:06:18] guarantees Syria's security and stability and the stability of the entire
[00:06:21] region. Syria is a country
[00:06:25] the region, and we emphasize the necessity of stopping Israeli
[00:06:28] aggressions against it, and we call on everyone to respect Syrian
[00:06:32] territorial integrity
[00:06:36] Israel in this regard.
[00:06:40] The Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Dr. Marwan
[00:06:44] Al-Halabi, announced the signing of a framework cooperation agreement
[00:06:47] between Syria and Turkey in the fields of higher
[00:06:50] education and scientific research, at the conclusion
[00:06:53] of talks he held with the Head of the Turkish Higher Education
[00:06:56] Council, Erol Ozvar.
[00:06:59] Minister Al-Halabi clarified that the agreement reflects
[00:07:02] the two countries' keenness to strengthen their academic
[00:07:05] partnership and develop scientific and research cooperation
[00:07:08] in a way that serves their interests and elevates
[00:07:12] the higher education system in each of them,
[00:07:15] noting that addressing joint files
[00:07:18] will be done in a spirit of partnership and full coordination with the Turkish
[00:07:22] side, which preserves students' rights
[00:07:25] and protects the efforts made in serving higher education.
[00:07:38] President Ahmed Al-Shara confirmed that the opening of Deir ez-Zor
[00:07:42] International Airport embodies a transformation from a site that was
[00:07:46] used to bomb cities and towns into a gateway
[00:07:50] connecting the governorate to its internal and external surroundings.
[00:07:53] In a speech delivered via video
[00:07:56] conferencing during the opening of the airport, the President
[00:07:59] announced the implementation of a comprehensive development
[00:08:02] plan for the
[00:08:05] Eastern Region.
[00:08:08] People of Deir, our dear people, I have a speech here
[00:08:11] but I won't read it. Mashallah, there were many speeches,
[00:08:14] thank God. The ministers who are sharing
[00:08:18] this joy with you have done a great job. Thank God today that
[00:08:22] Deir ez-Zor Airport has been transformed from a place that carried
[00:08:26] bombs dropped on homes, dwellings, farms,
[00:08:29] and lands, and has become a link between the interior and the interior,
[00:08:33] and between the outside world and the interior.
[00:08:37] So we share this joy with you, and we wish
[00:08:40] we could have been with you today.
[00:08:43] You deserve much more than this, people of Deir. We have
[00:08:47] development plans that we are working
[00:08:50] on for the Eastern Region, Deir
[00:08:53] ez-Zor, Al-Hasakah, Raqqa, and all
[00:08:57] significance to the Eastern Region and its abundance.
[00:09:03] gradually implementing the development plan there, including the rehabilitation
[00:09:06] of infrastructure, and also the rehabilitation of the health sector
[00:09:10] there. There is also a hospital for
[00:09:14] cancer tumors, which will also
[00:09:17] be worked on, with an estimated cost of
[00:09:20] 21 million dollars. Also, the road connecting
[00:09:24] Damascus and Deir ez-Zor is also
[00:09:30] year, we worked
[00:09:33] this road, and we have almost reached the final
[00:09:36] stages. It will cost approximately
[00:09:39] between 275 million dollars and 300 million
[00:09:45] The Minister of Transport informed me a few
[00:09:48] days ago that they have almost finished
[00:09:53] companies, and it will be up to international standards, God willing, in a way that befits
[00:09:57] the capital of Deir ez-Zor, God willing. Also, the road connecting
[00:10:01] Al-Bukamal and Raqqa will also
[00:10:03] be rehabilitated.
[00:10:07] within, between
[00:10:10] Al-Bukamal and Deir ez-Zor, will also be worked on. Also,
[00:10:13] the bridges that were destroyed, including the Siasia and Al-Mayadin
[00:10:16] bridges, we are also working on rehabilitating
[00:10:19] them and rebuilding
[00:10:22] them from scratch, and God willing, it will be completed soon.
[00:10:26] There is also a project for a large industrial city, which will also
[00:10:30] have food industries and petrochemical
[00:10:33] industries to provide many job opportunities, and also to export
[00:10:36] products directly from Deir ez-Zor
[00:10:40] to all parts of the world. How will the people
[00:10:44] of Deir ez-Zor make products in Deir ez-Zor soon, God willing?
[00:10:47] So, God willing, we are working on all these projects
[00:10:51] diligently. We need some time for these
[00:10:55] projects to be completed, and we do not consider anything too much for our people in Deir
[00:10:58] ez-Zor and our people in the Eastern region. These
[00:11:01] are just the beginnings, God willing, and the first thing we will start
[00:11:04] with is connecting roads so that people can go and return to
[00:11:08] Deir ez-Zor safely and comfortably.
[00:11:11] The member of the Executive Bureau in Deir
[00:11:15] ez-Zor Governorate, responsible for housing, services, and facilities, Yahya
[00:11:18] Al-Ali, presented a briefing during which he reviewed the extent
[00:11:21] of the destruction that affected the infrastructure in the governorate
[00:11:25] and the most prominent projects implemented and underway to rehabilitate service
[00:11:29] networks, roads, and public facilities,
[00:11:32] which contributes to improving the service environment and creating
[00:11:36] conditions for the return of residents to their neighborhoods.
[00:11:48] An agreement was reached with some partners to conduct
[00:11:51] an accurate assessment of the damaged neighborhoods so that we have
[00:11:56] information regarding sewage networks and regarding damaged buildings
[00:11:59] and their assessments. Severely damaged buildings
[00:12:02] that must be removed and moderately damaged buildings that can
[00:12:06] be reinforced and damaged buildings
[00:12:09] that can be renovated. During the past emergency period, as you know,
[00:12:12] the work was after the liberation, an emergency
[00:12:15] plan
[00:12:17] to provide services to citizens according to need.
[00:12:21] Some work has been completed in
[00:12:25] the palaces, at the old airport, and in the industrial
[00:12:29] area, and the Hamidiya neighborhood.
[00:12:33] has been completed in terms of water, electricity, and sanitation,
[00:12:38] this road to restore
[00:12:41] life to these neighborhoods
[00:12:43] for merchants and residents to return to their neighborhoods in a dignified
[00:12:47] and safe manner, God willing. We also have a plan
[00:12:49] for rural roads in Al-Shamiyah, of course, and schools
[00:12:53] in Al-Shamiyah will also be approved. They will be announced within two days, God willing,
[00:12:58] Al-Shamiyah. The road plan is ready,
[00:13:02] and the studies are ready. Agricultural and service roads outside
[00:13:06] the organizational plan will be announced. Also, the Deir ez-Zor City Council,
[00:13:09] God willing, we have a good and somewhat acceptable plan
[00:13:13] regarding roads. Regarding house
[00:13:16] renovations, some organizations
[00:13:19] are participating with us in renovating houses. This
[00:13:22] information is taken through the municipality,
[00:13:26] according to the applications submitted by
[00:13:29] the owners of the damaged buildings to the organizations. Criteria
[00:13:33] are used to target residents based on the targeted
[00:13:36] criteria, such as residing in their home, the extent
[00:13:39] of damage being limited, and the structural
[00:13:42] integrity being maintained.
[00:13:45] The number of family members - these criteria are taken
[00:13:49] into account by organizations, of course, in cooperation with the Deir ez-Zor City
[00:13:52] Council. This is a brief overview of the upcoming projects
[00:13:56] for Deir ez-Zor Governorate.
[00:13:59] President Ahmed Al-Shara issued Decree No.
[00:14:02] 122 of 2026,
[00:14:06] which stipulates the appointment of Ahmed Rawad Mohammed Bashar Ramadan
[00:14:09] as Director-General of the Syrian Investment Commission. The decree
[00:14:13] comes within the framework of issuing administrative appointments for governmental
[00:14:17] institutions and bodies, as it stipulated the appointment of Ahmed Rawad
[00:14:20] Mohammed Bashar Ramadan to assume the duties of the General Directorate
[00:14:24] of the Syrian Investment Commission, replacing
[00:14:27] Engineer Talal Al-Hilali.
[00:15:22] The Fourth Criminal Court in Damascus
[00:15:25] concluded the fifth session of the trial of the accused Ahmed
[00:15:28] Hassoun, while setting August 24th
[00:15:32] as the date for the next session, which is dedicated to review
[00:15:36] and judgment. The court had previously begun
[00:15:39] the fifth session of the trial of Ahmed Hassoun, who is accused
[00:15:44] and justifying murder during the era of the defunct
[00:15:48] regime. The session was chaired by Judge Fakhr al-Din al-Arian
[00:15:51] in the presence of representatives of national and international
[00:15:55] human rights organizations.
[00:15:59] Today, the fifth session of the trial of the accused Ahmed Badr
[00:16:03] al-Din Hassoun, the Grand Mufti of the defunct regime,
[00:16:05] was held before the
[00:16:09] the Palace of Justice in Damascus.
[00:16:12] The Public Prosecution demanded, during this session,
[00:16:15] the imposition of the harshest penalties against him.
[00:16:19] In response, the defense lawyer presented his
[00:16:22] plea before the court. The trial was adjourned
[00:16:25] until August 24th
[00:16:28] of the current month. The accused faces
[00:16:31] charges, most notably incitement to murder
[00:16:35] and violence during the years of the Syrian Revolution.
[00:16:39] It is worth noting that Ahmed Badr al-Din
[00:16:42] Hassoun is not the only accused in these
[00:16:45] cases, as the Syrian courts continue
[00:16:48] to follow up on the files of a number
[00:16:51] of accused individuals in accordance with legal procedures.
[00:16:54] From the Palace of Justice in Damascus, Daan
[00:16:57] Jumaz for Syrian
[00:16:59] News. The Special
[00:17:03] Engineering Detachment of the Internal Security in
[00:17:06] Aleppo Governorate dismantled an explosive belt
[00:17:10] found in the Al-Sakhour neighborhood of Aleppo city.
[00:17:13] The competent authority continues to complete the procedures and investigations
[00:17:16] related to the incident, while
[00:17:20] no information has been reported
[00:17:34] The UN Security Council held a special session
[00:17:38] during which it heard a briefing on the threats posed by ISIS in Syria
[00:17:42] peace and security. The head of the Office of the
[00:17:45] Under-Secretary-General for Counter-Terrorism confirmed that
[00:17:48] the organization is exploiting the changing security
[00:17:52] landscape in Syria to reconstitute its threats,
[00:17:56] calling for the safe, voluntary,
[00:17:59] and dignified repatriation of Al-Hol
[00:18:02] camp residents.
[00:18:06] the organization still poses a serious threat to international
[00:18:09] peace and security. Counter-terrorism operations
[00:18:11] have
[00:18:14] undermined the organization's senior leadership
[00:18:18] and limited its ability to direct operations
[00:18:21] centrally, but the organization
[00:18:24] has adapted to the new circumstances. Although the current
[00:18:29] the organization remains resilient, and its affiliated
[00:18:32] entities are united around a common ideology.
[00:18:35] The organization still exploits fragile security
[00:18:39] environments and protracted armed conflicts. All
[00:18:43] counter-terrorism efforts must be based on international
[00:18:47] law, including international human rights law, humanitarian
[00:18:50] law, and refugee law. Adherence
[00:18:52] to these norms is not just a legal
[00:18:56] obligation; it is a practical
[00:19:00] necessity to ensure the effectiveness
[00:19:03] and legitimacy of our collective efforts. For her part,
[00:19:07] the Executive Director of the Counter-Terrorism Committee at the United
[00:19:11] Nations, Carmen Cantour, affirmed that developments
[00:19:14] in Syria emphasize the importance of vigilance
[00:19:18] in confronting the organization's threat. She explained that addressing
[00:19:21] the situation of former ISIS affiliates requires
[00:19:25] legal prosecution, rehabilitation, and reintegration in accordance
[00:19:28] with international law. The challenge remains
[00:19:31] global, and Africa is affected more
[00:19:35] than others, and developments in Iraq and the Syrian Arab Republic
[00:19:39] emphasize the importance of vigilance.
[00:19:43] Humanitarian challenges remain enormous, and the closure of Al-Hol
[00:19:47] camp represents a huge development,
[00:19:49] and it
[00:19:52] highlights the complexity
[00:19:55] of addressing the situations of former
[00:19:58] ISIS affiliates and their families.
[00:20:01] This issue is becoming more urgent
[00:20:04] today. Ensuring effective legal prosecution
[00:20:07] and reintegration and rehabilitation
[00:20:10] measures that take into
[00:20:13] account the age group and the gender
[00:20:16] dimension are all issues that have not
[00:20:20] yet been resolved. Addressing this challenge will require international
[00:20:24] cooperation, sufficient resources, and compliance with humanitarian
[00:20:27] law and international human rights law,
[00:20:30] while paying attention to the needs
[00:20:33] of victims.
[00:20:43] The Syrian Permanent Representative to the Organization
[00:20:46] for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, Muhammad Katoub,
[00:20:50] affirmed, on the anniversary of the sarin gas attack in Douma city
[00:20:53] in August 2013, that the effects
[00:20:56] of these crimes do not end with the dispersal of toxic
[00:20:59] gases, but remain etched in the souls
[00:21:03] of survivors and the families of victims, as they continue
[00:21:06] their pursuit of truth, justice,
[00:21:08] and accountability.
[00:21:13] 13 years have passed, and the details of that
[00:21:17] dark night are still etched in the minds
[00:21:20] of Syrians. 13 years have passed, and the people
[00:21:24] of Douma city have not forgotten the horrors they experienced
[00:21:27] when the defunct regime turned the city into a stage
[00:21:31] for one of the most heinous crimes after it was targeted
[00:21:34] with toxic sarin gas, leaving and injured
[00:21:38] civilians. Hospitals were overflowing with casualties,
[00:21:41] whose numbers approached 400 people, most of them women
[00:21:44] and children, before warplanes returned to fly over
[00:21:48] the city, spreading terror among residents
[00:21:52] who thought a new attack was imminent. The last
[00:21:55] scene was even more brutal: images documenting hundreds
[00:21:59] of bodies. Those painful scenes did not prevent
[00:22:02] the defunct regime from re-using this internationally prohibited
[00:22:05] weapon. Just two weeks after targeting Douma with sarin
[00:22:09] gas, it targeted Ghouta with chemical weapons on August
[00:22:12] 21, 2013. It also
[00:22:16] committed two massacres in Khan Sheikhoun in 2017
[00:22:20] and in Douma in 2018, according
[00:22:23] to the findings of a joint investigation by the United Nations
[00:22:26] and the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. According to
[00:22:30] the Syrian Permanent Representative to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical
[00:22:33] Weapons, Muhammad Katoub, the Douma attack was the
[00:22:36] 31st reported use of chemical
[00:22:40] weapons in Syria, and the second on the same
[00:22:43] night, stressing that the effects of these crimes do not end
[00:22:46] with the dispersal of toxic gases, but remain deeply rooted in the souls
[00:22:50] of survivors and the families of victims, as they continue
[00:22:53] their pursuit of truth, justice, and accountability.
[00:22:57] Today, after 13 years, Syrians remember
[00:23:00] that night with sorrow, but this memory
[00:23:03] is accompanied by hopes of completing the transitional
[00:23:06] justice process and holding those responsible for these
[00:23:10] crimes accountable.

[00:23:31] the most prominent issues of common concern. The Syrian delegation's
[00:23:34] visit came at the invitation of the Lebanese Minister of Interior.
[00:23:38] The delegation was led by Brigadier General

[00:24:08] prospects for developing joint cooperation and exchanging expertise in areas
[00:24:11] related to the Authority's work, which supports its efforts
[00:24:14] and establishes the right of families
[00:24:18] of missing persons to know
[00:24:20] the truth. The Authority reviewed its duties
[00:24:23] and competencies and national efforts

[00:24:53] A convoy of 182
[00:24:57] families departed from displacement camps in the Idlib countryside to their homes
[00:25:00] in the northern and western Hama countryside, as part
[00:25:03] of the "Syria Without Camps" vision, under the patronage
[00:25:07] of the Directorate of Social Affairs and Labor in Idlib, and with support
[00:25:11] from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
[00:25:14] 100%
[00:25:19] of the
[00:25:21] families today close a long displacement
[00:25:25] story that lasted for more than ten
[00:25:28] years, during which its winter
[00:25:31] nights were harsh, covering their bodies
[00:25:35] with nothing but a piece
[00:25:37] of cloth, which itself did not protect
[00:25:41] them from the summer heat and high temperatures.
[00:25:44] Today, this page is turned with the return
[00:25:48] to their homes on their land, which
[00:25:51] they were forcibly displaced from by
[00:25:54] the defunct regime, which left it destroyed
[00:25:58] as a pile of stones and cut
[00:26:01] and burned trees, to begin
[00:26:04] the journey of reconstruction and stability anew
[00:26:07] in those villages and towns
[00:26:10] from which they were displaced
[00:26:13] previously. Today, the shovels of construction
[00:26:17] begin anew in those villages and towns
[00:26:20] that were destroyed by the defunct regime.
[00:26:23] Moaz Al-Abbas, Syrian News,
[00:26:26] Idlib. As part of the "Fidaa
[00:26:30] for Hama" campaign, the General Company for Drinking Water and Sanitation
[00:26:34] in Hama Governorate launched three projects to rehabilitate
[00:26:37] drinking water stations in Uqairabat, Northern Mekimen,
[00:26:41] and Southern Mekimen, with the aim of enhancing
[00:26:44] service sustainability and improving the water situation in the eastern
[00:26:48] Hama countryside.
[00:26:53] The General Company for Drinking Water and Sanitation, in cooperation with
[00:26:57] Hama Governorate, launched three rehabilitation projects in the eastern
[00:27:00] countryside of the governorate as part of the Fidaa
[00:27:08] for Hama campaign. These include the rehabilitation of works, providing these
[00:27:11] wells with solar energy systems, electrical and mechanical
[00:27:15] equipment, in addition to replacements and expansion in
[00:27:19] the Jarabat area, in addition to equipping these
[00:27:22] wells with, as we mentioned, electrical and mechanical
[00:27:26] equipment, in addition to solar energy systems. Of course, more than
[00:27:29] 10,000 beneficiaries will benefit
[00:27:32] from these projects after these areas suffered from water scarcity
[00:27:36] and weakness after the defunct regime destroyed the infrastructure
[00:27:39] in these
[00:27:42] areas. The Drinking Water and Sanitation Corporation
[00:27:46] in Hama is rehabilitating Jarabat Well 2 to supplement
[00:27:49] the first well to provide drinking water to
[00:27:52] citizens, as the percentage of returnees to Jarabat has reached
[00:27:56] 85%. Work is currently underway
[00:27:59] to rehabilitate this well
[00:28:03] and expand the network and maintain
[00:28:06] the old network.
[00:28:09] We are thirsty, we need water, and we hope
[00:28:13] that God will guide them to complete this project because we are buying water, and
[00:28:17] God willing, the project will be completed successfully and we will drink water and sleep
[00:28:20] in our homes. This is what we
[00:28:22] want, my sister.
[00:28:27] We need water, we desperately need
[00:28:30] it. They are buying ten barrels for 75
[00:28:33] tractors. We say, even
[00:28:37] a little bit comes from outside, and Jarabat has a great need
[00:28:40] for water. The village has no water.
[00:28:44] We ask the water officials for water for Jarabat.
[00:28:47] There was an old project
[00:28:50] that would provide water not only to Jarabat but also
[00:28:54] to others. It has a tank and everything, but we need some action
[00:28:58] to get the project moving because the wells that are in
[00:29:01] Jarabat are shallow and their water is weak,
[00:29:04] not enough. I ask you to help
[00:29:08] us with
[00:29:08] the project's water.
[00:29:12] We hope that the authorities will expand the projects a little bit, because people
[00:29:16] are suffering. They won't let us dig a well unless we get a paper
[00:29:19] from the Al-Asi Basin. Therefore,
[00:29:22] the projects and operate the artesian wells for olives, sheep,
[00:29:26] and other things. Thank you, and God bless you.
[00:29:28] The Minister of Endowments,
[00:29:33] Muhammad Abu Al-Khair Shukri, discussed with the President of the International
[00:29:36] Islamic University for Science and Technology, Muhammad
[00:29:39] Kurmaz, prospects for enhancing academic cooperation between
[00:29:42] the educational institutions affiliated with the Ministry
[00:29:46] and the University. The two sides discussed ways to develop religious
[00:29:49] education and exchange scientific and academic
[00:29:52] expertise. Minister Shukri affirmed that the Ministry
[00:29:55] of Endowments is proceeding with the implementation of its vision
[00:29:59] to develop religious education institutions through
[00:30:02] openness to universities and scientific centers.
[00:30:05] For his part, Kurmaz praised the achievements of the Syrian
[00:30:09] Ministry of Endowments after the liberation,
[00:30:11] considering that the launch
[00:30:14] of the Charter of Islamic Discourse Unity
[00:30:17] represents the most prominent of these.
