[00:00:00] frankly, I spoke to you a while ago and I repeat it now.
[00:00:03] These operations, we, from the security side, always say that these operations are
[00:00:08] the region. Therefore, many complex operations
[00:00:10] international parties also condemned this because they do not carry the dimension that would take you, for example, to... I mean,
[00:00:12] for example, no advanced device or a
[00:00:16] drone or so on was used to lead you to who the perpetrator is. These
[00:00:19] devices can be used by
[00:00:23] intensively to cells
[00:00:24] the Syrian state, knowing that that are affiliated
[00:00:26] How do you read this with, for example, I don't want to go into detail, but
[00:00:29] cells of a former regime, cells affiliated with
[00:00:32] Bashar al-Assad's regime, cells of ISIS, all of them can
[00:00:36] use even advanced countries that
[00:00:39] might harbor
[00:00:41] animosity towards the Syrian people and the Syrian economy try
[00:00:45] to tamper by using primitive tools so that the fingers
[00:00:49] bombing. of accusation remain for security agencies to work on, and they cannot

[00:02:23] The Ministry of Emergency Situations and Disaster Management announced that its teams,
[00:02:27] along with civil defense teams, completed the

[00:03:55] I welcome Syria TV correspondent from Jaramana, Amer Al-Assi. Hello
[00:03:58] and welcome, Amer. Please update us on the latest details and new
[00:04:01] developments you have regarding
[00:04:04] the information and the casualties
[00:04:07] in general, and the overall scene there in
[00:04:10] to them quickly so that Jaramana. Let's start by understanding, I mean, this Yes, Jamal, there
[00:04:13] is no, there is no
[00:04:15] evidence.
[00:04:20] nation. On the other hand, the along the route of this Jaramana is growing,
[00:04:21] state must send and the road had been opened after it was closed,
[00:04:26] can and the injured were transported. The number of injured up to this moment is
[00:04:30] martyrs fell in this bombing. The bombing, 10 injured. The injured were transported to hospitals
[00:04:34] in Damascus and also
[00:04:36] many the car in which the bombing occurred was removed by
[00:04:40] the civil defense and
[00:04:43] the new Syrian situation in agencies is to monitor this by
[00:04:44] the traffic now in then the bombing location
[00:04:47] or
[00:04:49] explosive devices. Also, reliance on also the bombing or
[00:04:52] the affected area
[00:04:55] there must be many was also
[00:04:55] due to the repeated bombings in returned to traffic
[00:04:57] in the street, to its normal state,
[00:05:01] after the internal security
[00:05:03] which affirmed that these bombings do not forces worked on
[00:05:06] collecting
[00:05:09] decisive and swift so that evidence from the scene of the
[00:05:09] and from incident and the bombing, and
[00:05:12] then traffic returned to the street and the bombing
[00:05:15] site to its normal state. However,
[00:05:19] there
[00:05:23] seems to be a problem with the sound from the source from our correspondent Amer
[00:05:26] Al-Assi. While we try to reconnect with him again,
[00:05:30] I thank him very much. I welcome my guest, Brigadier General Muhammad Al-Biqai, the security
[00:05:34] and military expert, with me from rural Damascus. Welcome to you, Brigadier General.
[00:05:38] bombing today and what happened in
[00:05:42] Jaramana in terms of timing and method
[00:05:45] of execution?
[00:05:49] Good evening, Professor Jamal, to you
[00:05:51] and the viewers of Syria TV.
[00:05:55] The truth is, Professor Jamal, many news
[00:05:58] and many analyses have been reported
[00:06:01] today regarding this bombing in Jaramana. I read it as
[00:06:06] aggrieved parties
[00:06:09] the Syrian situation, from the Syrian
[00:06:12] course, from the liberation of Syria, from
[00:06:16] controlling all terrorist and criminal cells and hotbeds in
[00:06:20] Syria. I mean, I personally
[00:06:22] analyze, given that this bombing happened in
[00:06:26] Jaramana, and Jaramana has a special status
[00:06:30] and special sensitivity from our brothers, as
[00:06:33] most of Jaramana's residents are from our brothers in
[00:06:36] Jabal al-Arab, and because Jaramana is
[00:06:40] an impregnable fortress against al-Hajri and al-Hajri's group
[00:06:44] to them and being drawn into
[00:06:47] their divisive projects and their allegiance
[00:06:51] to the occupying entity. Therefore,
[00:06:54] I explicitly state that al-Hajri,
[00:06:57] after, Mr. Brigadier General,
[00:07:00] so that we do not elaborate, naturally, regarding the issue of al-Hajri
[00:07:04] and others, we also focus on the bombing that occurred
[00:07:07] today in Jaramana. We want to
[00:07:11] know, I mean, how can
[00:07:14] bombing regarding the explosive device that was planted
[00:07:18] in, I mean, the passenger bus in general?
[00:07:21] Today, I mean, the fingers of accusation point to whom?
[00:07:24] I mean, Professor Jamal, whoever carried
[00:07:29] out this bombing, and I believe it is a primitive
[00:07:32] explosive device, a primitive
[00:07:35] homemade explosive device, I mean, made from
[00:07:39] explosive materials, from phosphates and some
[00:07:42] detonators, whoever carried out this bombing intended
[00:07:46] to cause the largest
[00:07:50] injuries, and deaths among civilians, as it
[00:07:53] was placed in a civilian bus. I mean, the fingers
[00:07:57] of accusation are many,
[00:08:00] from the parties that are affected by Syria's
[00:08:03] stability, especially ISIS, which always
[00:08:08] the desert, after all dormant and active
[00:08:12] ISIS cells were struck, there
[00:08:16] is also Hezbollah, which sends signals
[00:08:19] of rapprochement with the Syrian government, and the Syrian government
[00:08:23] responds to it. Therefore, all of these
[00:08:27] also, let's not forget the Qandil group in northeastern
[00:08:31] Syria, who also
[00:08:33] dissolved, and we await within
[00:08:37] days for them to announce the end of this terrorist
[00:08:40] organization. Therefore, all those
[00:08:43] affected, I believe, I believe
[00:08:46] that the size of the device and the method of the device,
[00:08:49] since it is primitive, it may be
[00:08:53] manufactured locally by a group. What are
[00:08:56] the priorities that the competent authorities generally work on in the first
[00:08:59] hours after the bombing, Mr. Brigadier General?
[00:09:03] First, the competent authorities, whether emergency,
[00:09:07] police, or public security, their response was actually
[00:09:10] quick to the scene of the explosion.
[00:09:13] And the health and security cadres
[00:09:16] carried out their duty. Today, I believe the first thing
[00:09:20] these cadres should do is to monitor
[00:09:23] the cameras at the location of the bus that exploded.
[00:09:27] Also, monitor the cameras
[00:09:31] bus. Perhaps there was
[00:09:34] a passenger, for example, who boarded at Bab Touma
[00:09:38] and got off in Jaramana, leaving the device inside
[00:09:41] the bus for, for example, seconds or
[00:09:44] minutes. Perhaps there was a car monitoring
[00:09:48] the bus that carried out the remote detonation. Therefore,
[00:09:51] the priority today for security
[00:09:55] road through the cameras available
[00:09:58] along the Jaramana road. And since
[00:10:02] the town has many shops,
[00:10:07] cameras at the entrances of shops in Jaramana.
[00:10:11] Today, the importance of a swift and decisive response after such
[00:10:14] operations, Mr. Brigadier General.
[00:10:18] Of course, the response must be
[00:10:21] some do not delude
[00:10:25] themselves into carrying out such operations that
[00:10:28] disturb the street and sow
[00:10:32] fear and chaos in the hearts of citizens. I mean,
[00:10:36] this device targeted civilian citizens, it did not
[00:10:39] target a specific military unit or
[00:10:43] a military or security checkpoint. It targeted
[00:10:46] unarmed citizens with this device,
[00:10:49] which resulted in the martyrdom of about four citizens and the injury of
[00:10:53] 16 citizens.
[00:10:56] Today, how do you read the speed of response of the security teams
[00:10:59] and even the medical teams in reaching the explosion
[00:11:03] site?
[00:11:06] I mean, the truth is that cooperation between citizens and between
[00:11:09] security agencies and service agencies seems
[00:11:13] to be increasing day by day in terms of speed.
[00:11:18] in the past period to bombings and to
[00:11:21] situations that require ambulance
[00:11:26] services. Therefore, it seems that citizens,
[00:11:29] thankfully, have begun the process of adaptation
[00:11:32] and have adapted to communicating
[00:11:35] with those agencies. But I, I mean,
[00:11:39] I count on the security agencies
[00:11:42] and the police agencies to publish
[00:11:46] many and more emergency numbers
[00:11:49] on social media and on
[00:11:53] mobile phones and regular phones. WhatsApp and regular calls
[00:11:57] so that any citizen in any
[00:11:59] point, in any place in Damascus or in
[00:12:02] the governorates, can contact those concerned agencies.
[00:12:06] Today, do such incidents lead to a review
[00:12:09] of security plans today, naturally, regarding
[00:12:13] what happened in the Jaramana
[00:12:15] bombing? Of course, Professor Jamal, of course.
[00:12:19] I mean, I believe that Damascus should
[00:12:22] be impregnable to those.
[00:12:26] Through inspection
[00:12:28] and scrutiny of all arrivals to the city of
[00:12:31] Damascus at all transport stations, garages,
[00:12:35] I mean, in parentheses, I mean, the departing and arriving
[00:12:39] must have their identities checked. Their
[00:12:43] backgrounds must be checked.
[00:12:46] Perhaps a person arrived from a distant province
[00:12:49] to carry out a terrorist act and then return. By tracking
[00:12:53] those criminals, we reach those connected to it and
[00:12:57] the financiers, of course. Okay, today,
[00:13:01] in general, I mean, as I understood from you, should we expect
[00:13:04] new security measures to be introduced generally after this incident?
[00:13:08] Mr. Jamal, of course, I believe
[00:13:12] that the security agencies today are studying
[00:13:15] the plan which is
[00:13:17] to import modern devices
[00:13:20] that can detect explosive materials. I mean,
[00:13:25] the way, I mean, to have, for example, a car on the Jaramana
[00:13:29] road or elsewhere
[00:13:31] device. Any car passing in front of it
[00:13:34] that contains an explosive
[00:13:37] device can detect those explosive materials.
[00:13:41] And this is not difficult. It exists in all countries
[00:13:44] of the world, especially, Mr. Jamal, that Syria
[00:13:48] today has had the sanctions lifted, and it can
[00:13:51] import such devices. Please stay with
[00:13:54] me, Mr. Brigadier General. I will turn to
[00:13:57] our correspondent from Jaramana, Amer Al-Assi. I welcome
[00:14:01] you again, Amer. You were disconnected
[00:14:04] a while ago. Please continue what
[00:14:08] you started.
[00:14:10] Jamal, there is nothing new, as we left
[00:14:13] the site where the explosion occurred, and life had
[00:14:17] returned to normal after the road was opened by the competent
[00:14:21] authorities who were present in the first hours.
[00:14:25] They worked to remove the car in which the bombing occurred
[00:14:28] and the remnants of the bombing. The Civil Defense was present in the first
[00:14:32] moments and worked to remove the car and worked to remove
[00:14:35] the remnants of the bombing and cleaned
[00:14:38] the street. Some shops had closed and then these shops
[00:14:42] opened and traffic returned to the street
[00:14:45] to its normal state. And then
[00:14:48] the injured and wounded
[00:14:51] were transferred to hospitals in
[00:14:55] Damascus. And there were also forensic
[00:14:58] teams affiliated with the Ministry of Interior
[00:15:02] that collected evidence at the bombing site.
[00:15:05] And then
[00:15:09] the street and in the area where the
[00:15:12] bombing occurred has returned to relative stability, but there
[00:15:15] is a state of tension from the civilians
[00:15:20] the recent period. The new thing is
[00:15:24] the statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
[00:15:28] deter the Syrian people from
[00:15:31] building and reconstructing
[00:15:34] sustainable development, because the goal of these
[00:15:37] bombings has become clear, that it
[00:15:40] aims to disrupt the stability of the region and to strike
[00:15:48] bombing, Jordan and Turkey
[00:15:50] and also other countries condemned the bombing
[00:15:54] and the bombings that preceded it. The internal
[00:15:56] security forces and the Ministry of Interior are working
[00:16:01] curb these bombings, but they happen
[00:16:04] from time to time. Also, investigations
[00:16:07] are currently underway regarding this bombing that occurred hours
[00:16:11] ago, extensively and intensively. The internal
[00:16:15] security forces announced that they found a lead
[00:16:19] and it is likely that this lead will lead to
[00:16:23] the criminals who are behind this
[00:16:26] Some radical Islamic formations
[00:16:29] or a radical Islamic
[00:16:33] formation claimed responsibility for this operation, but
[00:16:36] up to this moment, there is no confirmation
[00:16:39] bombing. It is probable and certain
[00:16:44] the coming times, there will
[00:16:46] be a clarification from the Ministry of Interior
[00:16:52] bombing because it is working extensively and
[00:16:55] broadly in
[00:16:59] bombing and the bombings that
[00:17:01] bombing today struck the central area
[00:17:05] of Jaramana, I mean,
[00:17:07] it made people live in a state of fear and made people
[00:17:11] afraid because this bombing occurred in
[00:17:15] a vital area inside a major street that contains many commercial shops
[00:17:19] and has constant and continuous traffic
[00:17:23] because it is a lifeline
[00:17:26] areas within the city of Jaramana.
[00:17:29] Yes, Amer, are there any updates on the condition
[00:17:34] bombing, even the hospitals to which
[00:17:37] the injured were distributed in Damascus
[00:17:40] and its countryside? Yes, information indicates that
[00:17:44] there are critical cases in terms of injuries and so on,
[00:17:47] and there are also minor cases
[00:17:50] among the injured. But certainly, the
[00:17:53] hospitals to which the injured were distributed have accommodated these
[00:17:57] people and are providing them with first aid
[00:18:00] and necessary procedures to ensure that
[00:18:03] these injured people are in good health. The truth is
[00:18:08] that our ambulance systems and the health
[00:18:10] system available in Damascus have a quick
[00:18:13] response time, a quick arrival at the scene, and quick
[00:18:17] transportation of the injured from the place where
[00:18:20] the accident occurred, and also
[00:18:22] the internal security forces also had
[00:18:26] a quick response to this bombing that occurred, and
[00:18:30] then these people were transported to hospitals,
[00:18:33] and some of them were transferred to other places
[00:18:37] within hospitals in Damascus that have greater care
[00:18:40] because their condition is serious or their condition
[00:18:44] is worse. And the injured, I mean, those
[00:18:46] with minor conditions,
[00:18:49] were provided with initial procedures and first aid
[00:18:53] at the medical points near Jaramana.
[00:18:55] Amer, was there, and I will conclude with you now,
[00:18:59] was there any need for blood donations or any
[00:19:02] medical support critical cases?
[00:19:06] I mean, it is assumed that if there was a need
[00:19:09] for blood, they would ask
[00:19:12] for it and publish it on social media, but I have not seen, according
[00:19:16] to what I have observed so far, any requests
[00:19:19] for blood donations or anything like that. But if there
[00:19:23] is a need, it will be published and circulated on social media
[00:19:27] so that the response for those who need blood
[00:19:30] and for those who are deficient in blood is quick
[00:19:33] and so that, I mean, this is contained,
[00:19:38] the condition of the injured is contained
[00:19:41] well and so that appropriate procedures are provided
[00:19:47] the condition of any of these injured people does not worsen. Thank you very much,
[00:19:51] Amer Al-Assi, Syria TV correspondent. You were with me from Jaramana. You will provide us with the latest
[00:19:54] details and information upon receipt. Returning
[00:19:58] to you, Mr. Brigadier General, what are the security messages that
[00:20:01] this bombing
[00:20:03] convey
[00:20:06] from those. Thank you very much, Amer Al-Assi, Syria TV
[00:20:09] bombing from
[00:20:14] parties, as I mentioned,
[00:20:17] who are not satisfied with
[00:20:20] stability and calm.
[00:20:24] I mean, the first of those messages is that we will
[00:20:27] not allow this country to stabilize,
[00:20:30] meaning, unless some of our demands
[00:20:33] or all of our demands are met. And there are many, frankly, demands
[00:20:37] from the remnants that the state rejected, and some demands
[00:20:41] from the QSD and some demands from the displacement. All
[00:20:45] of these parties, and at their forefront, of course,
[00:20:48] Israel, Professor, which every day
[00:20:51] presents us with a new
[00:20:54] project, either by invading some
[00:20:58] areas of our precious southern Syria, or
[00:21:02] by funding some terrorist groups affiliated
[00:21:05] with it. Also, Hezbollah sent messages
[00:21:07] through its Secretary-General, Naim
[00:21:11] Qassem, for rapprochement with
[00:21:14] the Syrian state rejected any rapprochement with these terrorist organizations
[00:21:18] except through the Lebanese state, where
[00:21:22] these are located. All of these were disturbed by the
[00:21:25] Syrian situation, which is moving towards stability
[00:21:29] and increasing investments,
[00:21:32] especially since after a few days or 15 days,
[00:21:36] Syria's name will be removed from the list of state
[00:21:39] sponsors of terrorism. International banks will
[00:21:43] open branches in Syria, investments will begin,
[00:21:46] and the law will be implemented. The situation, Professor Jamal,
[00:21:57] and many enemies of the Syrian
[00:22:00] state. Yes, please stay
[00:22:03] with me, Mr. Brigadier General.
[00:22:06] These statements that came from the Ministry of Interior now say
[00:22:10] that it continues, through the internal security forces, its security
[00:22:13] and investigative procedures in the city of Jaramana
[00:22:17] after the criminal bombing that targeted
[00:22:20] a passenger bus and resulted in the injury of 14 civilians.
[00:22:24] It also said that its specialized units began
[00:22:27] from the first moments of the bombing to cordon off
[00:22:30] the accident site, collect evidence, and follow up on investigations
[00:22:33] to uncover the circumstances of the crime and track
[00:22:36] down those involved in it and bring
[00:22:40] attack comes at a time when national
[00:22:43] and responsible statements have been issued by the elders and dignitaries of Jaramana,
[00:22:47] affirming adherence to the Syrian state and the unity
[00:22:50] of the country. This calls on everyone to be
[00:22:53] aware and not to be drawn into attempts to spread
[00:22:56] sedition or destabilize civil peace. This is what
[00:23:00] the Ministry of Interior reported. Returning to you,
[00:23:03] Mr. Brigadier General, how do you read the statement of the Ministry
[00:23:06] of Interior that was issued
[00:23:09] now?
[00:23:12] I mean, of course, the Ministry of Interior, thankfully, monitors all these
[00:23:15] actions quickly,
[00:23:18] and it is, I mean, 24
[00:23:22] hours a day, it deploys its patrols, it deploys
[00:23:24] its security personnel secretly and
[00:23:28] openly, and it monitors social media
[00:23:31] and platforms hoping to find a lead
[00:23:35] to any terrorist, to any subversive act that
[00:23:38] those groups might commit. Also, the Ministry of Interior
[00:23:42] is in contact with the popular
[00:23:45] support base in Jaramana
[00:23:48] to reassure that support base in order
[00:23:52] not to be drawn into some
[00:23:56] sectarian rumors that
[00:24:00] the perpetrators of this bombing wanted to ignite.
[00:24:03] Therefore, the Ministry of Interior's duty
[00:24:06] is this, and what is required, what is required
[00:24:10] from the citizens in Jaramana, is not to be drawn
[00:24:13] into any publication or any platform
[00:24:17] or any rumor that incites sedition.
[00:24:20] And chaos, because the bombing, Professor Jamal,
[00:24:24] not distinguish between a citizen from
[00:24:28] a certain group, from a certain ethnicity, from a certain
[00:24:31] religion. The bomb kills a Muslim just as it
[00:24:34] kills a Christian and others. Therefore, all
[00:24:37] citizens must be fully aware and fully awake
[00:24:41] and not be drawn into rumors. Thank you very much,
[00:24:45] Brigadier General Muhammad Al-Biqai, the security and military expert, you were with me from rural Damascus.
[00:24:48] I also welcome my guest, Dr. Hamza
[00:24:51] Al-Muhaimeed, the political analyst, with me from Damascus. Hello and welcome,
[00:24:54] Dr. Hamza.
[00:24:58] event and this terrorist bombing, away from
[00:25:01] its direct security details. What is
[00:25:04] your reading? May God bless you, sir, and my dear
[00:25:08] guests and followers. First, I wish a speedy
[00:25:11] recovery to the injured. Their number reached 14 injured.
[00:25:15] There are three critical cases, and thank God no
[00:25:20] at first, we can say that it was a treacherous bombing
[00:25:23] by a deranged person, not a criminal, but rather a criminal and deranged, because whoever
[00:25:27] targets his Syrian people with these devices and causes great
[00:25:31] damage has no goal, no humanity, and no
[00:25:35] values. The bombing occurred in an area, I mean, in
[00:25:38] a bus that was transporting, I mean,
[00:25:41] civilian people. A man suffered a leg
[00:25:44] amputation and a woman a leg amputation. The injured were transferred to Al-Radi Hospital
[00:25:48] in Jaramana. Then seven injured people were transferred to
[00:25:52] Damascus hospitals. This bombing, I mean, occurred, and
[00:25:55] it occurred almost a month
[00:25:59] before a bombing in a cafe
[00:26:02] near Al-Qassas. with a bombing during
[00:26:06] President Macron's visit to Syria. The goal of these subversive acts
[00:26:09] is to destabilize the nation's security and undermine its unity
[00:26:13] and national cohesion. Here, I can say that
[00:26:16] this bombing, I mean, targets the national unity among the people
[00:26:20] and components of the Syrian people, who are tired of the division
[00:26:23] that the defunct Assad regime sought to sow among them.
[00:26:27] Today, I mean, the city of Jaramana includes a large number of our dear Druze brothers
[00:26:30] and a large number of people from Deir ez-Zor, of whom I am one.
[00:26:34] And there are also people from other governorates who live in peace
[00:26:38] and harmony, but these bombings might create some chaos
[00:26:41] and confusion if we follow the malicious pages
[00:26:45] that try to incite this sedition. But thank God,
[00:26:48] the Syrian people, our people in Jaramana, have great awareness
[00:26:51] and know that whoever carries out this bombing aims to undermine national
[00:26:55] unity, and we cannot say that this component is trying to attack
[00:26:59] this component, but rather it is
[00:27:02] primitive device planted in the
[00:27:06] the Brigadier General said a while ago, it does not distinguish between a Christian, a Muslim,
[00:27:09] or a Druze, I mean, this is talk, I mean, we do not
[00:27:13] want to delve into rhetoric, but this device does not distinguish between the Syrian
[00:27:16] people, but rather targets everyone. Today, do you think
[00:27:20] this operation is random or does it carry indications
[00:27:23] of a specific goal, Dr.
[00:27:26] Hamza? sir, came after the statement issued by
[00:27:29] Jaramana dignitaries in the morning. There was a statement that perfectly
[00:27:32] affirmed the unity of the homeland and its sovereignty,
[00:27:36] and affirmed that our Druze brothers
[00:27:39] are with this homeland. Therefore, this bombing came
[00:27:42] in response to this national statement. It is
[00:27:45] a random bombing, I can say,
[00:27:48] because bombings that target, when there
[00:27:52] is an organization that possesses the capabilities, techniques, and tactics,
[00:27:55] it carries out qualitative operations
[00:27:58] that harm its targets. But this bombing was
[00:28:01] random. It was carried out by a deranged person. The person who plants a device in a bus
[00:28:05] carrying women, children, and civilian men who are not involved is a psychologically
[00:28:09] ill person. He and those behind him should
[00:28:12] see a psychiatrist and reconsider themselves before carrying out such acts. It is
[00:28:16] a random bombing. Here we cannot say that there is a security breach, my dear
[00:28:20] sir. A security breach occurs when there is
[00:28:23] a target of a specific leading figure or when there is a target
[00:28:26] of a security headquarters or a large government headquarters that
[00:28:30] causes great damage. But this type of bombing can be carried
[00:28:34] out by any deranged criminal, even in advanced countries
[00:28:37] that possess the latest technologies, devices,
[00:28:41] and capabilities. A deranged person can carry out this bombing. He planted it.
[00:28:44] and place it in a bus or in a garden that harms innocent civilians who have
[00:28:48] no relation to this. Here we can say, dear sir, I have been following it since
[00:28:52] the beginning of the bombing, that there are many analysts
[00:28:55] trying to avoid pointing the finger of blame at a specific party.
[00:28:59] I disagree with them on this. I always make sure to
[00:29:03] point the finger of blame at the real culprit. I mean, today we cannot
[00:29:08] bombing. ISIS has strong capabilities, and when it acts
[00:29:11] and targets, it targets specific security entities with precise
[00:29:15] and qualitative strikes. Also, the remnants today are far away. I mean, there are
[00:29:19] many groups whose goal is to harm
[00:29:21] the Syrian state. They all compete to
[00:29:26] of the nation. But when we talk about a bombing that occurred in the city
[00:29:29] of Jaramana, and a bombing that occurred hours after a statement
[00:29:33] by the honorable people of Jaramana, the honorable Syrians,
[00:29:40] person is kidnapped. But in general, Dr. Hamza, yes, these
[00:29:44] matters remain analyses pending the results of the investigation in general.
[00:29:47] Also, according to what was reported, yes, the
[00:29:51] Ministry of Interior spoke a little while ago in its statement, it said that
[00:29:55] it is still collecting
[00:29:57] evidence and following up on investigations to uncover the circumstances of the crime and pursue
[00:30:01] those involved. However, today I want to ask you about the messages today that
[00:30:05] the state is keen to convey after such incidents
[00:30:08] .
[00:30:10] The
[00:30:13] message that whoever carried out this bombing wants to convey to the state
[00:30:16] is that there is no security in the country and that we are able to strike
[00:30:19] the security and stability of this
[00:30:24] serious messages. It is not falling short. We are talking about a
[00:30:27] nascent security apparatus, meaning it is not more than
[00:30:30] a year and a half old. And it is an apparatus that
[00:30:34] has fought battles and faced one problem after another, and it has not calmed down, and its personnel
[00:30:38] have not been able to receive adequate training. But as
[00:30:41] Brigadier General said a little while ago, there must be an introduction
[00:30:45] of advanced devices that detect bombs
[00:30:48] or detect
[00:30:51] police dogs that detect the locations of
[00:30:54] explosives is necessary. And there are courses,
[00:30:57] meaning there are two sections of public security. Yes.
