00:00:00Its constant slogan will remain and
00:00:02its responsibility is to turn this right into a
00:00:06tangible reality, no matter the size of the challenges, efforts,

00:00:11their lives in required.
00:00:19From a small grain The village of Kafr Taal
00:00:21in the soil to a loaf in the Aleppo countryside suffers from
00:00:24a lack of basic services such as electricity, water, and necessary roads
00:00:28for its return after what it suffered from the bombing
00:00:32of the former regime throughout
00:00:35companies to invest in the years of the revolution. Also, the earthen barriers impede traffic
00:00:38and movement.
00:00:42Destruction affected homes, shops, and roads,
00:00:46and basic services were absent from the residents, leaving the residents
00:00:50of Kafr Taal facing a heavy reality left behind by the years
00:00:53of war. Electricity and water are at the forefront
00:00:56of needs, while the cost of
00:00:58alternatives has doubled. of daily life.
00:01:01Unfortunately, we expect services
00:01:04to be basic,
00:01:08infrastructure, for example, water, sewage networks,
00:01:11earthen barriers. Until now, the land is still being planted
00:01:16he was arrested and disappeared in with trenches. Partial destruction and complete destruction of homes. I mean, in general,
00:01:20healthy conditions have returned to the village, but maybe, maybe, I mean, he has
00:01:25The change this After years of
00:01:25dozens of meetings at no other choice, I mean, a blanket and a tarp, and a small child, he has
00:01:27no choice, and some people did not return because they cannot even spend 200
00:01:31dollars on their home to be able to live in it. The village's
00:01:35very grateful to the people who organized this location placed it, during the years of war, in the heart
00:01:38of confrontations, as it was one of the first lines of engagement during the battle
00:01:42to deter aggression and was subjected to intense shelling
00:01:45that caused extensive damage. Even today,
00:01:48the earthen barriers and traces of shelling are still present
00:01:51and hinder the movement of residents and transportation to
00:01:55its services. From and from the village. We need
00:01:58everything, I mean, at least, at least, we need a school, for example, activating a high school,
00:02:01water and electricity services. There is
00:02:05none. As for food items, for example, if you need something,
00:02:09you have to go somewhere else to buy it. Here,
00:02:11This
00:02:11a system more capable it is cut off. Despite the harsh conditions,
00:02:15the residents of Kafr Taal try to hold on to their land and regain
00:02:19their daily lives amidst hopes that the village will receive
00:02:22the attention commensurate with the extent of the damage. The return
00:02:26of stability to it means opening the way for residents to continue
00:02:30their lives and for commercial and social
00:02:32movement to regain its presence
00:02:36again.
00:02:39Kafr Taal does not need temporary solutions, but rather
00:02:42a real step that rehabilitates
00:02:45the closure of other centers to it, opens its roads, and restores to its people the necessities
00:02:49of life and stability. Muhammad Qanbari,
00:02:51Syrian News,
00:02:53should be smarter than the people. It turned out the people were smarter than Western Aleppo countryside.
00:02:56The southern villages of Tal Hamis countryside suffer from a lack of
00:03:00water and poor quality of groundwater. To
00:03:03obtain potable water, it is necessary to dig deeper wells
00:03:07or secure an alternative
00:03:11I expected the revolution to come from source.
00:03:14Thousands of residents in the Tal Hamis countryside suffer from thirst and a lack
00:03:18of drinking water due to the unavailability
00:03:20ear of wheat that grows in of sufficient water sources to meet their needs. Residents believe
00:03:23that digging a well 300 meters deep
00:03:27with isolation of the saline surface layers may...
00:03:33in 40 health centers
00:03:38Our water is salty, not suitable for drinking, washing, or anything. It is only suitable
00:03:41for watering the house for the livestock.
00:03:45Washing and drinking, it's not suitable at all. Our pumps break down
00:03:48due to the salinity of the water. Our pumps have been broken for 10 days now.
00:03:52emergency response We have no water to drink. A tank of water costs 100,000,
00:03:55we buy it for 50,000. So, a tank lasts for one night
00:04:00Today's stability does and the next day. I mean, we buy a tank every day. 10,000.
00:04:03This village is known as Al-Nuqta. This is the main one, the private one
00:04:07that belongs to Al-Jisi village
00:04:10grounds your methodology in the field. and Al-Khassah farm. We suffer from the water problem because we have
00:04:14water that is not suitable for drinking, even
00:04:15for equipment.
00:04:18The water we store
00:04:22in unsuitable tanks is not potable, and is harmful to health,
00:04:25frankly. We have this well here, it's not isolated
00:04:28at all, and the water is... It's salty sometimes,
00:04:32topics this I mean, it's completely unsuitable for drinking, but we're forced to drink it because
00:04:35diesel first rose, and we don't have the ability for anyone
00:04:40Five martyrs, I survived to start their car and bring and distribute water tanks in the village.
00:04:43Second, we need
00:04:46and Deir ez-Zor offices, a system, I mean, an irrigation system, I mean, distribution to the village. We need,
00:04:49I mean, our basic demand is sweet water. I mean,
00:04:53that the state pays attention to these villages, especially our village, because
00:04:57it's a real struggle.
00:05:02The Directorate of Internal Trade and Consumer Protection in
00:05:06Hasakah conducted inspection tours of bakeries
00:05:09in Hasakah city following complaints about
00:05:12the rising price of bread,
00:05:15in order to verify compliance with the approved price and the mechanism
00:05:18of sale to citizens. The
00:05:21tours resulted in issuing reports against a number of violating
00:05:24bakeries and taking the necessary legal
00:05:27measures. The Directorate affirmed that the price of bread has not
00:05:31been modified by the Ministry of Economy and Industry,
00:05:35emphasizing continued oversight
00:05:38and preventing the collection of any additional
00:05:40amounts.
00:05:45The Ministry of Economy and Industry sent a technical team to
00:05:49the Al-Mazraa area in the Sweida countryside to inspect the quality
00:05:52of the flour supplied to the region's bakeries, where
00:05:56samples were taken to verify their compliance
00:06:00with Syrian standard specifications. The tour included
00:06:03urgent sensory and technical tests
00:06:07and an inventory of quantities allocated for humanitarian aid
00:06:10and verification of storage conditions. This is part of
00:06:13measures aimed at ensuring the safety of the stored
00:06:17flour allocated to bakeries and displaced families in
00:06:20the western Sweida and Daraa countryside, and protecting
00:06:24the health of citizens and ensuring the quality of the distributed
00:06:27bread.
00:06:37challenges, the Syrian health sector stands
00:06:41before a new phase, titled rehabilitation
00:06:43and restoration of readiness. Between
00:06:47facilities needing renovation,
00:06:50medical devices needing updating, and
00:06:54increasing needs for cadres and expertise,
00:06:57governmental efforts continue to rebuild the sector
00:07:01and enhance its ability to provide
00:07:07outdated medical devices to
00:07:10a shortage of staff and difficulty accessing some services,
00:07:14the map of needs for the health sector in
00:07:17Syria is expanding at a time when steps to rebuild
00:07:21and establish
00:07:24of responding are accelerating. According to the latest data from the World
00:07:27Health Organization, the health sector in Syria needs support
00:07:31targeting 12 million and 800
00:07:34thousand people by 2026,
00:07:37amid continued infrastructure, staffing,
00:07:40funding, and access challenges.
00:07:44Latest data from the Ministry of Health indicates
00:07:48that 1,320
00:07:50health centers are operational out of
00:07:521,740 centers. The ministry attributes
00:07:58damage, staff shortages, and difficulty
00:08:01of access. In Damascus alone, government hospitals
00:08:04need about 19 medical
00:08:07devices with a plan to replace outdated
00:08:10devices within four years. On the rehabilitation
00:08:14front, the Ministry of Health began rehabilitating
00:08:17five hospitals in Hama, Idlib, Deir ez-Zor, Daraa,
00:08:21and Homs, while 22
00:08:24health centers in rural Aleppo are being renovated
00:08:27as part of a European-supported project. As for cadres, efforts
00:08:31are directed towards training and attracting expertise,
00:08:34expanding nursing and midwifery schools, and launching campaigns
00:08:38and specialized medical missions. The ministry is also working
00:08:42on introducing the family medicine approach
00:08:46in parallel with digital transformation and developing
00:08:49a unified electronic health file. Official tenders
00:08:52announced in September indicate continued
00:08:55efforts to provide medical devices, surgical equipment,
00:08:59and hemodialysis supplies, reflecting a shift
00:09:02in needs from
00:09:04to a long-term reconstruction
00:09:08path.
00:09:11The Assistant Minister of Economy and Industry, Basil
00:09:15Abdel Hanan, discussed with the Syrian-Egyptian Businessmen Council in
00:09:18Damascus the investment opportunities available
00:09:22and ways to enhance partnership between the business communities
00:09:26of the two countries. The meeting addressed mechanisms
00:09:29for exploiting available opportunities to develop economic cooperation
00:09:33and encourage the establishment of joint projects and investments
00:09:36between Syrian and Egyptian businessmen.

00:09:50Under the patronage of the Governor of Homs, Mr. Murhaf Al-Naasan,
00:09:54the Syndicate of Syrian Engineers in Homs held a ceremony
00:09:57to honor the detained engineers
00:10:00and those who participated in the operation to deter aggression, and the families
00:10:04of the martyr engineers in loyalty and appreciation
00:10:07for their sacrifices and their role during the past
00:10:10years.
00:10:25Honoring the engineers who participated in the battle of deterring aggression
00:10:28and the martyrs, and honoring the families of the martyrs, and honoring
00:10:31the detainees who contributed to those who sacrificed
00:10:36the detentions and suffered torture. Praise be to Allah, Lord
00:10:40of the Worlds. Allah honored us in deterring aggression and liberated
00:10:43Syria as a first battle. Allah, Lord of the Worlds, honored us in it.
00:10:47Now, there is a very big role for engineers in the battle of construction.
00:10:50The engineer is the foundation in the battle of rebuilding Syria.
00:10:54Just as the engineer played a big role in the battle of liberating Syria,
00:10:58he will have the biggest role in the battle of building and rebuilding
00:11:02Syria from scratch, God willing.
00:11:05The father of engineer Muhammad Nidal Al-Tarash was martyred in
00:11:082013 by a mortar shell at the entrance of Al-Hissama Mosque.
00:11:12Today, we were at an event
00:11:15organized by the Engineers Syndicate, thankfully, to honor
00:11:18the families of martyrs and detainees. It was
00:11:21a nice gesture from them, honestly, because the families of martyrs,
00:11:25throughout all these years, they need support, they need
00:11:29to feel that someone remembers them, throughout this whole period. May God have mercy
00:11:32on the martyr engineer. The martyr was,
00:11:36from the beginning of the revolution, with the revolutionaries in Bab Amr, and
00:11:39as a result, Sednaya
00:11:42and martyred. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. We, of course, suffered
00:11:46from the loss and searching for him for many years until the day
00:11:50of liberation when we confirmed his martyrdom.
00:11:53Praise be to Allah, the blood of our martyrs was the path
00:11:56to victory. I am
00:12:00honoring. We thank
00:12:02them all.
00:12:05I just want to say this sentence, that death
00:12:08is a right, but martyrdom is a selection. The Lord of the Worlds
00:12:11chooses them, a selection for the martyrs. May God have mercy
00:12:14on them all and make their abode in Paradise. Their blood
00:12:17illuminated the path for us to be liberated. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
00:12:21And I would like to thank everyone who contributed to this event.
00:12:26And we are very proud to have participated
00:12:28in it.
00:12:31At the end of our bulletin, here is a reminder
00:12:33of the headlines.
00:12:37President Ahmed Al-Shara discusses with ministers and officials the launch
00:12:40of his projects and the city of Ma'arat
00:12:42in Aleppo.
00:12:46The Governor of Raqqa affirms to Al-Ikhbariya the work to
00:12:49address a number of service and development files
00:12:52and the maintenance of 133

00:13:34Thank you for your kind attention. May God keep you safe.
00:14:18This will restore hope not only to Syrians but to the entire
00:14:21region.
00:14:25not only serve Syria, but it serves the entire region, and it is a common interest
00:14:29for all. Syria now, as I mentioned to
00:14:33you, had great opportunities, and many, especially
00:14:37Gulf countries, seized them. So, investments began to flow into Syria
00:14:41sequentially. Our people in the Emirates
00:14:44are keen on opportunities, so Dubai Ports quickly
00:14:48invested in Tartous
00:14:50port.
00:15:00As for us, God willing, we will serve you.

00:15:08my family. I am the daughter of a completely
00:15:11missing family.
00:15:16I hope God gives you patience
00:15:19and strength. We are with you until you reach
00:15:22the truth.
00:15:30Your cause is not a secondary issue for us, nor is it a propaganda
00:15:34issue. This is a duty we bear on our shoulders, God willing,
00:15:37and we will work on it with all
00:15:38sincerity.
00:15:45The first delegations that visited Damascus, and the
00:15:48German delegation.
00:15:55We believe today that there is a great opportunity to develop
00:15:59this relationship between Syria
00:16:01and Germany.
00:16:07A very important opportunity to be utilized by German
00:16:13Syrian sectors.
00:16:25We have passed the stage of acquaintance and building trust,
00:16:28and now is the right time to start
00:16:30working.
00:16:42And in front of an international scene awaiting Syria's new
00:16:45path, the Turkish Republic has taken
00:16:48the initiative to be among the countries that have reopened their embassy
00:16:52doors in Damascus
00:16:55and opened its crossings and supply lines.
00:16:59Today, we are talking about
00:17:02presidential and ministerial levels, and 40
00:17:06agreements and memoranda.
00:17:16Syria stands today with its full sovereignty to draw its national
00:17:20paths with free will and choose its partnerships
00:17:23and direct the compass of its investments and development
00:17:27based on its
00:17:28supreme interests.
00:18:09Welcome to the Syrian Story podcast on Al-Ikhbariya
00:18:12channel.
00:18:16The most painful and hurtful thing
00:18:19for me was when someone told me, "Stop the barrel, then talk
00:18:22about freedom." There should have been a provisional government, a military council,
00:18:26a Qutb council. No one
00:18:30the word. My dead family knew I was dead, and they made
00:18:33an apology for me. They came to visit me in Tadmor after 20 years.
00:18:38To prepare for the attempted coup against Hafez al-Assad, how
00:18:41did you uncover it? Oh, what should I do for him? This is the first time
00:18:45I've heard such things. I really don't know what we should do.
00:18:48Hasakah. I apologize if I am in this
00:18:52episode today. We will revisit the tragic
00:18:56memories. The stories we wanted to convey
00:18:59the pains of Syrians, their dreams, their aspirations, through
00:19:03colors. Syrian Story Podcast on

00:19:14Because the distance between the street and decision-makers
00:19:17is a wall that obscures the truth. We
00:19:21are here
00:19:24and everywhere, bustling with questions
00:19:27and problems.
00:19:32To carry the voice
00:19:33of the people.
00:19:39And seek a space for solutions with decision-
00:19:42makers.
00:19:48A link that shortens the distance
00:19:51and bridges
00:19:53the gap.

00:20:16The fourth office to be opened inside Syria
00:20:20after the Idlib, Hama,
00:20:23this opening comes as a confirmation of
00:20:26the state's duties to be present alongside
00:20:28the citizen.
00:21:11on the table, a journey that summarizes one
00:21:14of the simplest meanings of security in every
00:21:17Syrian home. This journey, which drought threatened
00:21:20for years, is returning today to recover.
00:21:23A jump in numbers:
00:21:27return to the golden basket, after
00:21:30a long war that forced the country to search for wheat outside
00:21:34its borders, and a drought that covered the land
00:21:37until it reduced its production to about
00:21:40934
00:21:42thousand tons in 2025.
00:21:442025.
00:21:47Syria achieves self-sufficiency for 2026.
00:21:512026
00:21:56A season that filled the country's silos with about
00:22:002.7 million tons of wheat
00:22:03tells a story of agricultural recovery that Syrians
00:22:07have long awaited. Production
00:22:10geography.
00:22:15season was not limited to improved rainfall,
00:22:18but the return of the eastern and northern governorates to
00:22:22their role as a key driver of agricultural
00:22:26production contributed to achieving self-sufficiency
00:22:29for the first time since 2010,
00:22:33after the cultivated areas were distributed across an agricultural
00:22:36map exceeding 1.4
00:22:40million hectares, as Hasakah governorate topped
00:22:44the map with about
00:22:4637% of the total crop,
00:22:50followed by Raqqa, Aleppo, and Deir ez-Zor
00:22:53as integrated pillars to achieve
00:22:57food security. Joint efforts.
00:23:01agricultural expansion culminated in the alignment of government
00:23:04support plans with the steadfastness of the Syrian farmer
00:23:08and his attachment to his land, which transformed
00:23:11Syrian fields into a workshop full of mutual
00:23:15trust between the state and the farmer.
00:23:18Local production forms the strongest shield to protect
00:23:22the national currency. Every
00:23:24ton of wheat produced locally is
00:23:28a direct deduction from the import bill
00:23:31in foreign currency and a direct injection of liquidity
00:23:35into the hands of thousands of farming families,
00:23:38which drives the internal economic
00:23:41cycle. The sustainability bet
00:23:45beyond the exceptional season.
00:23:49The biggest bet does not stop at an exceptional
00:23:52rainy season, but rather begins with transforming this
00:23:55abundance into a sustainable production system
00:23:59that relies on modern technologies and smart
00:24:01irrigation to ensure self-sufficiency against any
00:24:05future drought waves, because every
00:24:10the ground is a step towards more
00:24:13stable production and greater
00:24:17self-sufficiency.
00:24:28Deir Ezzor, which gave yesterday, expects its children today to return
00:24:32the favor by working and to make their affiliation with it
00:24:36a responsibility, not just pride.
00:24:48You are today entrusted with a great trust, and many
00:24:52hopes are placed upon you. So be worthy of this trust
00:24:55and make what you learned in the training
00:25:11Through monitoring, tracking, and collecting information and evidence,
00:25:14we were able to arrest a gang that specializes in stealing homes
00:25:18and commercial establishments.
00:25:27We received information indicating the presence of a gang specializing
00:25:30in forging official documents.
