[00:00:32] administration will not leave
[00:00:35] Welcome, viewers, to this news hour from Syrian
[00:00:38] Television. We start with the top
[00:00:40] headlines.
[00:00:43] The Security Council holds a session on Syria,
[00:00:47] and the United Nations says that more than five million
[00:00:50] people are still displaced within it and are in need of
[00:00:57] of Quneitra to be part support. The occupation army
[00:01:00] kidnaps a person in the Quneitra countryside and carries out
[00:01:04] bombing operations in Jabal
[00:01:05] al-Sheikh.
[00:01:10] President Ahmed Shar'i issues a decree amending items in
[00:01:13] the customs

[00:01:19] The National Hospital in Deir Ezzor
[00:01:22] in a number of border was signed, and this records allowing work to continue 63 cases of suffocation due
[00:01:25] to the
[00:01:26] dust storm.
[00:01:37] and farms, and is limited Welcome again. The
[00:01:38] to areas not exceeding
[00:01:39] occupation state. In Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Mohammed Yahya,
[00:01:43] said that more than five and a half million
[00:01:46] people are still internally displaced in
[00:01:50] of the Syrian government's Syria at a time when the funding for the humanitarian
[00:01:53] response plan and needs for the year
[00:01:56] 2026 does not exceed
[00:02:01] 22%. Madam President, the humanitarian response plan
[00:02:05] Shaaban, regarding this and needs for 2026 are funded by
[00:02:15] entity or the Israeli army violations? de-escalation. only 32%, and it is not surprising that is engaged with this affects humanitarian work and support.
[00:02:19] Despite the severe shortage
[00:02:22] the positions of their of funding, humanitarian organizations continue to deliver throughout
[00:02:27] was a kind of sympathy Syria. Since the beginning of the year,
[00:02:31] in addition to meetings with 2.4 million people have received emergency
[00:02:34] assistance every month, including food, medicine,
[00:02:37] clean water, protection services,
[00:02:41] against them, calling food, and shelter in emergencies. Syrian organizations are at the heart of these
[00:02:45] efforts, accounting for 60% of partners on
[00:02:48] the ground.
[00:02:52] Syrian areas with the The opportunity in Syria is real, but without
[00:02:56] the coalition to eliminate this investments, we may miss
[00:02:57] that we are true representatives of ISIS and is willing to work with this opportunity. Madam President,
[00:03:02] my demands are clear. First,
[00:03:06] operations carried out by sustainable humanitarian funding and support
[00:03:09] for the most vulnerable. Millions still
[00:03:16] and the danger of the unity of Syrian to tighten its control rely on life-saving assistance, and winter is
[00:03:18] rights in the areas that have fast approaching. Second, we should invest in the Syrian people
[00:03:21] and permanent solutions, including
[00:03:24] of the Syrian state, my "No Camps, No Mines" initiatives, which
[00:03:28] were launched by the government.
[00:03:31] Claudio Cordone, Deputy Special Envoy of the United Nations
[00:03:34] to Syria, said that Israel continues
[00:03:38] to carry out shelling,
[00:03:40] that resulted in the arrest incursions, and detentions in southern Syria. He added
[00:03:43] that one person was killed near an Israeli site in the Quneitra
[00:03:47] countryside, noting that 49
[00:03:50] Syrians are still
[00:03:52] and the United Nations, in detention in Israeli prisons.
[00:03:56] Israeli military activities in southern
[00:03:59] of 36 Syria are ongoing daily, and they
[00:04:01] include construction
[00:04:05] people, and we encourage member states to workshops, checkpoints,
[00:04:08] and shelling
[00:04:10] and detention incidents. I emphasize the concerns
[00:04:15] and criminals from raised by the High Commissioner for Human Rights regarding the impact of these activities on civilians, including
[00:04:19] the killing of one person
[00:04:22] near an
[00:04:24] Israeli army site on October
[00:04:28] 5th, and
[00:04:30] also the arrests of 49
[00:04:35] discussed last month people who are reportedly
[00:04:35] is a security principle still in detention in Israel.
[00:04:40] viewers on Syrian Ibrahim Al-Albi, Syria's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, said in a message
[00:04:43] addressed to the people of Quneitra and rural Daraa
[00:04:47] who are facing Israeli occupation forces that
[00:04:50] Syria does not forget its people and does not compromise on
[00:04:53] kilograms of the rights of its children. Al-Albi added in a message
[00:04:57] addressed to Israel that there is only one
[00:05:00] between the political and military way to security, and its title is international
[00:05:03] legitimacy and Security Council
[00:05:05] Syria. This statement resolutions, not killing Syrians and raiding their homes.
[00:05:08] And I say to our brave people in Quneitra and in rural Daraa, who
[00:05:13] endure arrests and attacks on a near
[00:05:16] daily basis, and to the heroic journalists who
[00:05:19] were shot by the occupation forces while performing their duty
[00:05:22] of documenting and conveying the truth, I say
[00:05:27] does not forget its people and does not compromise on the rights
[00:05:31] of its children, and it does not overlook its national
[00:05:34] issues in the most important international
[00:05:39] civilians and journalists, I say: it is incumbent
[00:05:42] upon those who claim to seek security not to kill
[00:05:45] Syrians within their lands and not to
[00:05:49] raid their homes, arrest their children, and forcibly
[00:05:52] disappear them. It is incumbent upon them to know well that there
[00:05:56] is only one path to security, whose title is international
[00:05:59] legitimacy and the resolutions of your council, as
[00:06:02] you all reaffirmed through the press elements
[00:06:06] issued by the Council a few days ago.
[00:06:09] Colleagues, the pain that Israel perpetuates
[00:06:13] with its aggressions is clear to
[00:06:16] all of you. Every time it fires
[00:06:19] at Syria, it also, as the world
[00:06:22] witnessed, fires at itself, locally
[00:06:25] and internationally.
[00:06:29] The US Ambassador to the Security Council,
[00:06:32] Tammy Bruce, stressed the need for self-restraint
[00:06:36] and continued implementation of the trilateral roadmap
[00:06:40] between Syria, America, and Jordan regarding Sweida.
[00:06:43] Bruce also referred to Washington's involvement in supporting dialogue
[00:06:47] and peaceful efforts between Damascus and the Israeli
[00:06:51] Sweida, we reiterated our support for the trilateral
[00:06:55] roadmap announced by the United States,
[00:06:58] Syria, and Jordan, and we urge all parties to exercise
[00:07:02] self-restraint and continue implementing the roadmap
[00:07:06] towards accountability, security,
[00:07:08] reconciliation, and the safe return
[00:07:12] of Syrian displaced persons. We still encourage
[00:07:16] Israel and Syria to exercise
[00:07:19] self-restraint and pursue
[00:07:22] The United States
[00:07:25] both countries to support dialogue and peaceful
[00:07:29] solutions. Thank you. The US
[00:07:31] Ambassador also welcomed the cooperation
[00:07:34] of the Syrian government with the international coalition against ISIS,
[00:07:38] noting that lasting peace in Syria depends
[00:07:41] on the return of sovereign state institutions capable
[00:07:45] of protecting all communities so that they
[00:07:48] can participate in the future of their country. ISIS no
[00:07:51] longer controls territory in Iraq and
[00:07:54] Syria, and we have broken its ranks in both countries.
[00:07:58] We celebrated
[00:08:01] this alliance and considered that we have a partner in
[00:08:04] Damascus who recognizes the danger
[00:08:09] threat. Lasting peace in Syria depends
[00:08:13] on the return of sovereign state institutions capable of protecting
[00:08:17] all communities so that they can all participate in the future
[00:08:21] of their country. The US Ambassador
[00:08:24] to the Security Council, Tammy Bruce, also said
[00:08:28] that justice and accountability for
[00:08:31] missing Americans in Syria are a priority
[00:08:34] for the United States, noting that she is
[00:08:38] cooperating with Syria on this file. She also called
[00:08:42] on the international community to cooperate with Syria to prevent
[00:08:45] and monitor any antiquities trafficking.
[00:08:49] Justice and accountability for missing Americans is an American
[00:08:52] priority, and the United States and Syria jointly
[00:08:56] hosted an event to highlight the voices of
[00:08:59] the families of the missing and their need for
[00:09:02] answers and accountability. We were also
[00:09:05] pleased to participate in the repatriation
[00:09:11] pieces of stolen Syrian heritage to the Syrian
[00:09:17] cooperate with Syria to prevent and monitor any antiquities
[00:09:20] trafficking, not only to preserve Syria, but
[00:09:24] also to prevent terrorists
[00:09:28] obtaining this source
[00:09:31] of funding. For more details,
[00:09:34] we are joined by Shaaban Abboud, correspondent
[00:09:38] for Syrian Television, live from Washington. Welcome,
[00:09:42] Shaaban. Based on your knowledge, what
[00:09:45] are the most prominent issues that were discussed
[00:09:48] today during the Security Council session?
[00:09:51] Yes, welcome, Hiba. It can be said that there are three
[00:09:55] main issues that were focused on in the statements
[00:09:59] of the representatives. The first is the Syrian
[00:10:02] internal file, with its two aspects related to the
[00:10:05] political process and the fight against ISIS,
[00:10:08] in addition to the aspect related to the humanitarian
[00:10:11] situation and the issue
[00:10:15] of the return of refugees and displaced persons, and the difficulties
[00:10:19] facing that, and the lack
[00:10:22] of resources.
[00:10:24] It was noteworthy that the Assistant Secretary-General
[00:10:28] for Humanitarian Affairs spoke about more than five million Syrians
[00:10:32] who are still considered displaced persons who
[00:10:36] need assistance. At the same time,
[00:10:39] there was a reference to the difficulties facing
[00:10:43] the reconstruction
[00:10:46] process and the return of some refugees, for example,
[00:10:49] such as the widespread or existing
[00:10:52] mines that caused the killing of about 14 people
[00:10:56] and the injury of dozens, in addition to difficulties
[00:11:00] related to funding. There was a reference
[00:11:03] to the fact that the funding
[00:11:06] and response plan received only
[00:11:10] about 32% support,
[00:11:12] which is a very small figure compared
[00:11:16] to Syria's needs.
[00:11:19] At the same time, there was the aspect related
[00:11:22] to the political process and the situation in Sweida
[00:11:26] governorate. There was
[00:11:29] a reference to American support, for
[00:11:32] example, for the roadmap that was agreed upon, or
[00:11:35] under a
[00:11:38] non-agreement or a Syrian-American-Jordanian
[00:11:42] plan last year. This roadmap
[00:11:47] reveals
[00:11:49] the American vision for solving
[00:11:53] the Sweida issue. There is no solution
[00:11:55] in Sweida except through the implementation of this
[00:11:59] roadmap. At the same time, the most prominent
[00:12:03] headline, Hiba, was the issue of Israeli
[00:12:06] attacks and incursions. The Syrian representative dwelt on
[00:12:09] that a lot, in addition to the continuation
[00:12:13] of these incursions. He stressed that security in the region
[00:12:16] and security for Israel itself will not be achieved through
[00:12:20] this policy that Israel pursues,
[00:12:23] the policy of
[00:12:26] T-. What were the reactions,
[00:12:30] file and this issue regarding the increasing pace
[00:12:33] of Israeli
[00:12:36] There are no reactions in the Security Council. There are people
[00:12:40] who deliver their speeches, representatives who deliver
[00:12:43] their speeches and express
[00:12:47] countries on this issue. For example, there
[00:12:52] or affirmation from the representatives
[00:12:55] of some countries, such as the State of Denmark,
[00:12:58] the Pakistani representative, and the Russian representative. Everyone
[00:13:02] agreed, Hiba, that Israel must adhere
[00:13:05] to the 1974 disengagement line
[00:13:08] and the importance of respecting
[00:13:12] Syrian sovereignty
[00:13:14] and the importance of that,
[00:13:18] not only for the stability of Syria,
[00:13:21] but also for the political process when it comes to the stability
[00:13:25] of all countries in the region.
[00:13:28] This is what most of the representatives' statements
[00:13:31] alluded to. The American representative spoke,
[00:13:35] or rather, reiterated the American position, calling on both
[00:13:39] parties to exercise self-restraint and spoke
[00:13:42] about the importance of dialogue and diplomatic
[00:13:46] solutions to address the problems between the two parties,
[00:13:49] between the Syrian and Israeli sides, and said that
[00:13:52] the United States has always encouraged dialogue between
[00:13:56] the two sides. And once again,
[00:14:00] dialogue between the two sides and diplomatic solutions are the optimal
[00:14:03] choice to solve all problems.
[00:14:07] At the same time, the American representative praised
[00:14:10] the progress that the Syrian government
[00:14:13] has made, especially with regard to the fight against
[00:14:16] ISIS, and also the progress it is making in the political process
[00:14:20] and security
[00:14:23] responses. At the same time, she also
[00:14:26] praised the meeting of the American states
[00:14:29] with President Ahmed
[00:14:32] Al-Shar' and President Trump
[00:14:35] and a group of leaders from the region,
[00:14:38] Gulf states and Arab states, on the sidelines of the
[00:14:41] UN General Assembly meeting. She also focused
[00:14:45] on Syrian-American cooperation and how the United
[00:14:48] States hosted officials from the Syrian Ministry
[00:14:51] of Finance and the Central Bank
[00:14:55] of Syria. These Syrian officials
[00:15:00] with their American counterparts the process of reconnecting
[00:15:03] Syria to the international
[00:15:05] financial system.
[00:15:08] There was an American commendation for the progress
[00:15:11] made by Syria, and at the same time,
[00:15:15] there was also talk about the fact that
[00:15:18] ISIS is no longer present in both
[00:15:21] Iraq and Syria, while the Russian representative
[00:15:24] said that ISIS still retains
[00:15:28] combat capabilities in
[00:15:30] perhaps suggests a difference or contradiction between the statements
[00:15:34] of the American and Russian representatives, but the American representative
[00:15:38] meant exactly that ISIS no
[00:15:41] longer controls territory within Syria,
[00:15:45] and she certainly did not mean that there are no longer
[00:15:48] sleeper cells, for example, of ISIS. Yes,
[00:15:51] these are the most prominent
[00:15:54] or most important headlines or issues
[00:15:57] that were discussed in this session. Yes, over to you, Hiba.
[00:16:00] Thank you very much, Shaaban
[00:16:02] Washington.
[00:16:11] Syrian TV correspondent reported that the Israeli
[00:16:15] occupation arrested a person during a patrol's incursion
[00:16:19] into the village of Rasem Sind in rural Quneitra. An
[00:16:22] occupation patrol also infiltrated north of the town
[00:16:26] of Kudna in southern rural Quneitra and
[00:16:29] searched houses, in addition to a similar
[00:16:32] incursion in the area south of the town of
[00:16:35] Al-Rafid in rural Quneitra, where it prevented a
[00:16:39] machine working on digging the foundations of a farm
[00:16:43] belonging to the town's residents from continuing its work.
[00:16:45] The patrol also stopped the excavation work and
[00:16:48] prevented the machine from completing it,
[00:16:51] stipulating that approval from the United Nations Disengagement
[00:16:55] Observer Force must be obtained before
[00:16:59] at the site.
[00:17:04] Syrian TV correspondent also reported that the Israeli
[00:17:07] occupation army carried out bombing operations in Jabal
[00:17:11] al-Sheikh in the western Damascus countryside. He added that
[00:17:15] the occupation forces detonated an abandoned military barracks
[00:17:19] in Tal Harboon near the town of Beit Jann.
[00:17:51] A delegation of People's Assembly members visited
[00:17:54] Quneitra Governorate on an official visit,
[00:17:58] the first of its kind, covering a number of archaeological
[00:18:01] and service sites, including Khan Arnabah archaeological
[00:18:05] site and Golan Hospital,
[00:18:09] the residents to learn about the service and living conditions
[00:18:12] and the needs of the governorate's residents,
[00:18:16] in a step that reflects the delegation's solidarity
[00:18:19] with them and their interest in their conditions. Today, you are
[00:18:23] representatives of all Syrian people and all governorates.
[00:18:26] We, as members of parliament, as members of the People's Assembly,
[00:18:29] came today with my colleagues in the People's Assembly to confirm
[00:18:34] of this city, and the city is an integral part of Syria,
[00:18:38] and we reject any form of Israeli incursion
[00:18:42] on this city. Our presence
[00:18:45] and upcoming legislation will, God willing, be in favor
[00:18:48] of this region to confirm territories, to confirm
[00:18:52] the full
[00:18:55] been advanced by Israeli aggression, that they are the right of Syrians,
[00:18:58] God willing.
[00:19:03] Of course, our message is that we say,
[00:19:06] "We are in Quneitra, we are rooted in the homeland.
[00:19:09] We are humanitarians, patriots,
[00:19:12] Arab nationalists, even pan-Arabists. We love humanity, we forbid
[00:19:16] aggression from us, and we forbid aggression against us.
[00:19:20] This is our constitution and our principle. We
[00:19:22] say, 'We build bridges of trust and love among all segments
[00:19:26] of the Syrian people, and we especially mention the people
[00:19:29] of Quneitra Governorate, Quneitra of pride and dignity,
[00:19:32] Quneitra of honor, dignity, and martyrs. May God accept
[00:19:36] their martyrs and heal their wounded. And we ask God Almighty
[00:19:39] to spread goodness, peace, and security throughout
[00:19:42] our beloved homeland. And we say, 'We are from you and to you,
[00:19:45] people of Quneitra. We are your brothers.
[00:19:49] We love you in God, and we say, 'We and you, hand in hand, for
[00:19:52] the good of the country and the people.'"
[00:19:55] To talk more about this, we are joined by security
[00:19:59] expert Mr. Rashid Hourani, with us from Damascus.
[00:20:02] Welcome, Mr. Rashid. So, the continued
[00:20:05] Israeli occupation incursions, violations, digging, and construction
[00:20:09] of berms in Quneitra. In your opinion, what are the expected
[00:20:12] scenarios for the coming period? My greetings
[00:20:15] to you and all
[00:20:17] Television for the invitation. In fact, the Israeli
[00:20:21] ground incursions into southern Syria have indicated that they are a
[00:20:25] gradual and systematic
[00:20:28] operation carried out by the Israeli entity, both by its political
[00:20:32] and military class. There is also alignment
[00:20:38] class in this direction. Also,
[00:20:41] some link the Israeli incursions to the
[00:20:44] Israeli elections
[00:20:46] within the Israeli entity. However, public
[00:20:50] opinion polls generally
[00:20:53] indicate that there is a strict
[00:20:58] from the Israeli population or from Israeli society
[00:21:02] regarding these issues.
[00:21:06] will be no retreat from this policy
[00:21:10] regarding Israeli
[00:21:13] incursions. And it seems that the Israeli
[00:21:16] entity's military and security government wants, through these
[00:21:20] incursions, to create a new field reality
[00:21:24] and impose it as a fait
[00:21:27] accompli on the Syrian government. This
[00:21:30] new field reality is linked to the vicinity
[00:21:34] of the Golan and Jabal al-Sheikh
[00:21:37] in particular. This
[00:21:40] reality is represented by strengthening
[00:21:42] and increasing the military force
[00:21:45] present in the vicinity of the Golan and Jabal
[00:21:49] al-Sheikh, particularly. They want the Israeli
[00:21:53] entity, through these incursions, to establish
[00:21:55] to clarify the picture more clearly,
[00:21:59] to establish a buffer zone specifically for the Golan
[00:22:03] and Jabal al-Sheikh
[00:22:06] In your opinion, does this not fall under security
[00:22:09] concerns, but rather has other dimensions?
[00:22:12] Yes, it has other dimensions, especially
[00:22:16] since the incursions that occurred or
[00:22:19] the operations that took place in both
[00:22:23] the towns of Qal'at Jandal and Beit Jann
[00:22:26] prove that the Israeli entity is not limited to establishing
[00:22:29] a special security zone in the governorates
[00:22:33] of Quneitra and western Daraa, but rather
[00:22:36] is moving, in light
[00:22:40] reliance on political and diplomatic action
[00:22:43] only in confronting the Israeli entity,
[00:22:47] towards approaching and moving
[00:22:50] north and approaching areas
[00:22:54] of the western Damascus countryside to establish
[00:22:57] military facilities and military points
[00:23:00] there. These points will make the Israeli
[00:23:05] more capable of influencing
[00:23:09] and maneuvering, especially since the area it
[00:23:13] now controls in Quneitra
[00:23:15] and the western Daraa countryside, in addition
[00:23:18] to these areas in
[00:23:20] the western Damascus countryside, also
[00:23:24] provides it with the ability to monitor and provide
[00:23:28] early warning,
[00:23:30] and also precise monitoring of all
[00:23:34] movement axes and roads that connect
[00:23:37] Syria to Lebanon and also connect the aforementioned
[00:23:42] Jordanian border. Therefore, it
[00:23:46] wants to intensify its military presence in order
[00:23:49] to control and monitor its movements. We notice
[00:23:52] that all the areas it advances on are characterized
[00:23:56] by being high mountains of Jabal al-Sheikh
[00:24:00] and the surrounding areas
[00:24:03] over the area,
[00:24:06] its control over this
[00:24:08] area comes from the proximity of this area
[00:24:12] to the political capital
[00:24:14] which is still suffering from many internal
[00:24:18] problems related to
[00:24:28] these facts, and in the face of this danger, how can
[00:24:32] the international community today
[00:24:33] stand against these Israeli
[00:24:36] violations? The international community, through the numerous
[00:24:39] Security Council sessions
[00:24:42] has had many countries that have asked
[00:24:45] Israel, as Mr. Shaaban mentioned
[00:24:48] in his intervention, to stop its incursions,
[00:24:52] and this is, if
[00:24:55] I may say so, an achievement for the Syrian
[00:24:58] government in the political battle against the Israeli
[00:25:02] entity. There is also another
[00:25:05] approach whose indicators are emerging, whether officially
[00:25:09] or unofficially, which can
[00:25:12] be used to confront the Israeli entity
[00:25:16] or the Israeli army during its incursions
[00:25:20] in the Syrian arena, because there
[00:25:25] that states that power does not create
[00:25:29] reality at the moment of performing its tasks, but rather
[00:25:33] by the impact it leaves. Today, the Israeli army
[00:25:36] enters southern Syria and arrests
[00:25:39] citizens, preventing farmers
[00:25:42] from using the roads leading to their farms
[00:25:45] and livelihoods. All these actions towards
[00:25:48] civilians have effects that undermine
[00:25:52] and destabilize the Israeli military and security
[00:25:56] presence in southern Syria. Mr. Rashid,
[00:25:59] in your opinion, also, regarding
[00:26:03] the citizens who are suffering in those areas, what
[00:26:06] is the significance of the visit of a delegation from the People's
[00:26:09] Assembly to Quneitra to see their conditions?
[00:26:13] Yes, in fact, the actions of the Syrian government have varied
[00:26:17] in recent days regarding the residents of Quneitra
[00:26:20] and the people of the city, whether those living in
[00:26:23] Damascus or the visit of members
[00:26:26] of the People's Assembly. This is a message of reassurance
[00:26:30] to the residents that Syria or the Syrian
[00:26:34] this matter to chance
[00:26:37] and at the mercy of the Israeli
[00:26:40] entity's army. Perhaps temporarily, these
[00:26:43] incursions and attacks will be dealt with
[00:26:46] either politically or through the establishment
[00:26:49] of popular resistance, according to what
[00:26:53] I follow and according to my estimates,
[00:26:55] and that the Syrian state considers the city
[00:27:00] of Syrian geography,
[00:27:02] like other Syrian cities, whether inland, coastal,
[00:27:05] or eastern. Thank you very much,
[00:27:09] Mr. Rashid Hourani, security expert. Thank you for being with us
[00:27:13] from Damascus.
[00:27:17] Quneitra Governorate approved a 50% reduction
[00:27:21] in building permit fees
[00:27:24] villages adjacent to the occupied Syrian Golan. The decision
[00:27:28] came under a memorandum of understanding signed by the governorate
[00:27:32] in cooperation with the Engineers Syndicate to include
[00:27:36] 14 villages
[00:27:40] 100 square meters, with the aim
[00:27:44] of alleviating the financial burdens on the residents and strengthening
[00:27:48] their stability in the border areas in light of the difficult
[00:27:51] living conditions and continued Israeli violations,
[00:27:54] amidst calls to expand the scope
[00:27:57] of the decision to include the rest of the governorate's
[00:28:00] villages and towns.
[00:28:12] The Internal Security Directorate in Hasakah city announced
[00:28:15] a ban on carrying weapons and moving around
[00:28:19] with them inside the city, and prohibited firing
[00:28:23] for any reason. The Directorate also emphasized limiting
[00:28:27] weapons to official security and military forces while
[00:28:30] performing their duties in the governorate. The Directorate stated
[00:28:34] that violators of the decision will face strict
[00:28:37] measures, including confiscation of weapons
[00:28:40] and legal action
[00:28:43] on residents to cooperate with security forces
[00:28:46] and report any violations.
[00:28:51] The Internal Security Command in Tartous Governorate
[00:28:54] announced the discovery of a cache of weapons
[00:28:58] and ammunition in a mountainous area in the Qadmous region.
[00:29:01] The command clarified that the seized items,
[00:29:04] which were found during search and sweep
[00:29:09] security forces in the area, included a 12.7
[00:29:12] mm machine gun
[00:29:16] and quantities of various ammunition, in addition
[00:29:20] to military uniforms
[00:29:21] from the remnants of the overthrown regime.
[00:29:26] The Homs Anti-Narcotics Branch thwarted an attempt
[00:29:30] to smuggle and promote a shipment of narcotic
[00:29:33] substances coming from Lebanon. The Anti-Narcotics
[00:29:36] Department stated that it carried out
[00:29:39] a pre-emptive operation
[00:29:43] of two main smugglers. It also resulted in the seizure
[00:29:46] of 250,000 Captagon pills and
[00:29:50] 250 grams of marijuana
[00:29:52] material.
[00:30:01] The operation came after a report from one of our field agents that a suspicious
[00:30:05] car had entered the abandoned farms area.
[00:30:09] Through the direction of reconnaissance units, we
[00:30:11] monitored the aforementioned car and directed
[00:30:14] our units after obtaining a judicial arrest warrant.
[00:30:17] After the arrest operation, we found inside the car
[00:30:21] a quantity of narcotic substances estimated at about 5,000
[00:30:24] Captagon pills. After taking the car owners and locations to the branch
[00:30:28] and bringing the K9 unit, we found inside the spare tire compartment
[00:30:32] equipment for promotion or for
[00:30:35] smuggling outside Homs. The
[00:30:39] total quantity was estimated at about a quarter of a million Captagon pills.
[00:30:42] Homs' presence and its concentration deep inside
[00:30:45] Syrian territory makes it a crossing, smuggling,
[00:30:49] and storage and packaging
[00:30:52] point. The Lebanese army said that it seized about 200
[00:30:56] explosives that were prepared for smuggling from Syria.
