00:00:13Welcome to this episode of
00:00:13are widely sold in Astoria program, and to
00:00:16you will see the strong-willed not the headlines. Welcome to the closure of two restaurants in Deir
00:00:20ez-Zor after a poisoning incident. Praise
00:00:23for the elimination of a cell belonging to the terrorist
00:00:26teams will deal with ISIS organization involved in carrying out assassinations.
00:00:29Interaction with scenes of the graduation of the 71st
00:00:31batch of individuals in Hama city.
00:00:50His liberated soul participated in General fatigue, weakness, vomiting, and a feeling
00:00:53of intense cold despite high body
00:00:56temperature. These are the most prominent symptoms that
00:01:00were felt by the food poisoning cases that we heard about a few
00:01:03days ago in Deir ez-Zor Governorate.
00:01:06Let's listen.
00:01:09openings, and dispose of I stayed cold
00:01:10A bullet hit him in and shivering for about an hour. They put three blankets on me,
00:01:13and it didn't help. I started vomiting and having diarrhea. We came,
00:01:17of course, me, my son, and my wife, and we all came to
00:01:19this the hospital. Of course, they welcomed us
00:01:21in Erbil, so that he would not serve well, bless them. The people did not
00:01:24and its name would be mentioned in he insisted on serving let us down.
00:01:27From the intensity of the feeling of cold, the uncle felt that
00:01:32homes. As for one blanket was not enough. The
00:01:34story began after a number of families ate ready-made meals,
00:01:37initially recording a limited
00:01:42Amidst this number of infections before rising to 50, then
00:01:45100, reaching approximately 250 cases
00:01:48received by Deir ez-Zor National
00:01:53especially after a period of of assassinations in and Al-Huwaidi hospitals. However, with the increasing number of infected people, some
00:01:56wondered why the number of cases continued to rise despite
00:02:00the infected people going to hospitals. At first, many of the
00:02:04infected people thought that the symptoms that appeared on them were not
00:02:07more than flu symptoms before their condition worsened
00:02:11and they realized that it might be more
00:02:14serious. After the incident, two teams
00:02:19And Marwan says, "Thank you for were sent to investigate the epidemic to the hospitals where the infected people
00:02:23were receiving treatment. They also went to the places
00:02:26suspected of causing the poisoning to take samples
00:02:30from them and send them to specialized laboratories.
00:02:32But how long do
00:02:34people are sleeping on the analysis results need
00:02:36are security. to be issued? At that time, the Public Health Laboratory in Deir ez-Zor
00:02:39indicated that the results need two to five
00:02:42days. Yesterday, the Directorate of Internal Trade
00:02:46and Consumer Protection closed two restaurants
00:02:49with red wax in Deir
00:02:53ez-Zor after violations were proven in them.
00:02:56So what is the nature of these violations?
00:03:07In response to dozens of complaints from
00:03:10their predators from citizens, we closed two restaurants with red wax due to
00:03:12suspicion of food poisoning cases related to them.
00:03:16And during the inspection tour
00:03:18on you. What that was carried out, it was found that one of them had tampered with the food items
00:03:21he had. Legal procedures and necessary investigations
00:03:25will continue to ascertain all the details and appropriate
00:03:28measures. As for the other restaurant, through
00:03:32Are all the food products our supervisory rounds, rotten meat unfit for human consumption was seized
00:03:35inside. So, rotten meat and
00:03:39food items unfit for consumption are violations
00:03:42that led to the closure of the two restaurants. So how
00:03:45did you comment on this incident? Our first comment is from Muhammad
00:03:48the shops Al-Dali on Facebook, who says, "By God, after
00:03:51we heard about all these poisoning cases, one considers
00:03:55the best and cleanest food to be the one he eats at home because
00:03:58he knows what he is eating. As for restaurants, many of them do not care
00:04:02about cleanliness and good cooking, except for those whom God has blessed."
00:04:05Adi wrote a comment and said
00:04:10Sport, and Homs Al-Fida defeats Al-Tale'a in in it,
00:04:11and manufacturing safety "Every corrupt person should have their shop closed and be fined heavily
00:04:14so that no one messes with food. People's health is not
00:04:17a game. Oh, how many people were poisoned because of
00:04:20your actions?" And Muhammad wrote on X
00:04:23and said, "Muhammad regrets that, unfortunately, many restaurants in
00:04:29continues its winning streak in as he returned, he chose to serve reality, in all governorates, not just Deir ez-Zor, even famous restaurants,
00:04:32have a low
00:04:35is the fallen dough in the oven and dough on must be tightened on them." Reem wrote a comment
00:04:39saying, "Why this disregard for people's
00:04:42health? Cleanliness is not
00:04:44from the second round of the Syrian an option; it's the simplest duty for any restaurant that serves food
00:04:47to citizens. It's a shame that people go out looking for a meal and return
00:04:50sick due to negligence. Thanks to the efforts of supervision."
00:04:54Our last comment is from Jawad on Facebook,
00:04:58our position, whether at
00:04:59in preparation for joining victory over who said, "Food poisoning is not a simple matter, especially when
00:05:02the number of infected people reaches hundreds. People
00:05:05go to restaurants to eat and enjoy themselves, not to be exposed or
00:05:08expose their health to danger. Supervision is a responsibility that
00:05:14they deserve because their violation is truly
00:05:18serious."
00:05:26The Directorate of Internal Trade and Consumer Protection
00:05:29in Deir ez-Zor asked citizens not to hesitate
00:05:32to submit any complaint against violating restaurants,
00:05:35confirming that the inspection
00:05:38complaints immediately. Ibrahim Al-Khulaif
00:05:55Al-Jasem, one of the sons of Baqrus village in
00:05:57the Deir ez-Zor countryside,
00:06:02the Syrian Revolution against the defunct
00:06:05regime. This is him, carrying his weapon
00:06:08in defense of his land. After liberation, he joined
00:06:11the ranks of the Ministry of Defense. About a
00:06:14month ago, Ibrahim was subjected to an assassination
00:06:18attempt near Al-Rashid Mosque in Al-Mayadeen city.
00:06:23the head, and he did not survive. Ibrahim Al-Jasem was martyred.
00:06:26At that time, it was not
00:06:29known who was behind
00:06:32assassination, but yesterday the truth was revealed.
00:06:35The terrorist ISIS organization, which
00:06:38made the assassination of Ministry of Defense and Interior elements a target in its war
00:06:41on Syria. Yesterday,
00:06:45the General Intelligence Service, in cooperation with the Internal Security Forces in Deir
00:06:48ez-Zor, announced the arrest of the cell that carried out the assassination after
00:06:51accurate intelligence follow-up. Investigations
00:06:55showed that Ibrahim Al-Jasem was not the only victim,
00:06:58as the detainees carried
00:07:01out a series
00:07:04the governorate, the last of which was the targeting
00:07:07of Ibrahim. In the cell's hideout,
00:07:10weapons and ammunition were found and confiscated.
00:07:14These investigations are ongoing to uncover
00:07:17their connections in preparation for their referral to
00:07:21the judiciary. This event sparked wide interaction on
00:07:24social media. So
00:07:28how did you comment on it? The first comment is from Faten
00:07:31Soufi, who commented on Facebook, "Bless
00:07:34your efforts, Lord. Let this operation be the beginning
00:07:38of uncovering the rest of those involved and turning the page on assassinations in Deir
00:07:41ez-Zor. No one was harmed by this organization, its terrorism, and
00:07:45the Syrians and the Syrian revolution, and it was one of the reasons for the delay
00:07:48of liberation for many years." Khaled
00:07:50Al-Homsi wrote on Facebook, "Preemptive
00:07:54and security strikes are the decisive factor in preserving the security and stability of the region.
00:07:57Blessed are the arms of the security forces in Deir ez-Zor for this
00:08:01successful operation." And Abdul Wahab
00:08:04Al-Sayed says, "The people of Deir paid a heavy
00:08:07price due to violence and chaos, and they have the right to live in peace
00:08:10away from assassinations and intimidation. The success of any security operation must
00:08:14be reflected in real reassurance in the lives of civilians."
00:08:18And Abdel Fattah Abdel Salam says, "Dismantling this cell
00:08:21is an important step to protect the lives of civilians and enhance security
00:08:25in Deir ez-Zor, especially after the assassinations attributed
00:08:28to it. Continued security work is required so that
00:08:32these cells do not threaten people's lives and the stability
00:08:35of the region." Ahmed Al-Zaidi says on
00:08:39X, "An important security strike in the face of terrorism
00:08:43confirms that pursuing ISIS cells and drying up their
00:08:46sources of armament is a necessity to protect Syria's security
00:08:49and stability. All greetings to the security forces for
00:08:52their efforts, and we hope that the Syrian people will enjoy security
00:08:55and safety away from terrorism
00:08:59and chaos."
00:09:06In June, the Ministry of Interior announced the arrest
00:09:10of 235 ISIS members and the dismantling
00:09:14of seven cells and the foiling of seven operations in just three
00:09:17months. "I kept my son away from me
00:09:33so that he would not serve with the former regime,
00:09:36but as soon
00:09:40the country." With this statement, the father of
00:09:43one of the graduates expressed his pride in his son, who was among the
00:09:47150 young men who graduated yesterday in
00:09:51Hama province as part of the 71st
00:09:52batch.
00:09:55During the ceremony, the graduates showcased their skills through
00:09:59field demonstrations and practical applications
00:10:01that reflected the level of training they received and the
00:10:05knowledge and skills they acquired during
00:10:08the training period
00:10:11the field work and performing
00:10:15their assigned duties. We see in this security page
00:10:18that we celebrate the graduation of a new
00:10:21cohort.
00:10:36If the days tighten their rope of affliction,
00:10:41complaining.
00:10:48The graduation of this batch received wide interaction yesterday,
00:10:52not only because of the striking scenes that we followed
00:10:55during the ceremony, but also because these young men spent
00:10:5970 days away from their families during the training
00:11:03period. This is what made the scenes of their meeting with their families
00:11:06widely spread. So how did the
00:11:10families receive their sons after this period, and what did
00:11:13they say?
00:11:16By God, the feeling of a person giving his liver to the homeland, and this
00:11:20is the least we can do. And from here, from your free platform, I call upon
00:11:24every family, every person, every human being, the country is our country,
00:11:27and the homeland is our homeland, and many people have shed their blood as martyrs
00:11:31for us to live in this security and safety. The least
00:11:34we can do is for one person from every home
00:11:37to carry the banner of this homeland.
00:11:41Ironically, my son was away from me for four years,
00:11:46with the former regime. As soon as he returned,
00:11:49the country.
00:11:52My feeling was very joyful. I
00:11:56can't tell you or express it to you. I haven't seen him for 70 days,
00:11:59and thank God I saw him and his brothers all well. Praise be to
00:12:03God, the Lord of the Worlds. His brothers,
00:12:06all of them are his brothers, his colleagues, his colleagues.
00:12:08The scenes
00:12:11of mothers embracing their graduate sons
00:12:14truly deserve this interaction,
00:12:18absence during which families awaited this
00:12:21moment with great impatience. With the graduation of 150
00:12:25young men, a new stage begins in their career by officially
00:12:28joining the Ministry of Interior. But what
00:12:31are the tasks that will be entrusted to them, and what will
00:12:35be their role in the upcoming stage? Let's watch.
00:12:39Today, by the grace of God Almighty and the efforts of the training staff, the graduation
00:12:42of the 71st batch of individuals with the rank of guard, numbering
00:12:45150, took place. The graduation is for the benefit of Hama Governorate,
00:12:49and with the presence of the families and the joy of the families and graduates.
00:12:53The graduation took place by the grace and praise of God. The tasks of a policeman with the rank
00:12:56of guard
00:13:01This event received wide interaction yesterday.
00:13:04How did you comment on the graduation scenes and the meeting
00:13:07of the graduates with their families? The first comment is from
00:13:10Karim on X, who says or on YouTube, "Mashallah,
00:13:14the scenes of the graduates reflect the amount of training and effort they put in
00:13:18these past few months. By God, I hope Syria becomes stronger
00:13:21and stronger with the presence of the new heroic protectors of the homeland."
00:13:26And Noor commented and said, "Blessed are you, heroes,
00:13:29graduates, trainers, and leadership. Praise be to God,
00:13:33how much I dreamed of this day and to graduate to serve
00:13:36my country and my people." Louay
00:13:39says on X, "May God protect you. Mashallah
00:13:43perfection! By God, the scenes make one
00:13:46proud. This is our country that we are proud of and its youth.
00:13:50Glory to Him who honored us."
00:13:53Muhammad wrote and said: Muhammad, praise be to God, whether it was the
00:13:56policeman, or the security officer, or the colonel, or the soldier, all
00:14:00ranks now have dignity and love for the homeland like their love
00:14:03for their families. Our last comment is what Anas wrote on
00:14:07Facebook, who said, "Mashallah, young people, what
00:14:10perfection! It seems that you worked hard on yourselves for all these
00:14:1470 days until you reached this stage. By God,
00:14:17these scenes make one proud of such security.
00:14:20Honestly, it's the first time I'm proud of security forces
00:14:23from my country."
00:14:30The ceremony concluded with honoring the top graduates in appreciation
00:14:34of their efforts and excellence during
00:14:37the course and to encourage them to continue discipline
00:14:40and commitment in performing their national duty.
00:14:57Dear viewer, Hasakah is under
00:14:59invasion. A headline spread yesterday on social
00:15:03media, but what is meant? Is it a real
00:15:07ground invasion by another country?
00:15:10No, it's an invasion by insects. Social media
00:15:14circulated videos showing a massive invasion of
00:15:17black insects in large numbers in homes in the Hasakah
00:15:21countryside.
00:15:51Oh my God! Residents of some houses
00:15:54evacuated them in the villages of Al-Fidgham and Al-Thaljah in the southern
00:15:58Hasakah countryside. But what are these insects?
00:16:02The Directorate of Agriculture in Hasakah explained that this is the black
00:16:06field cockroach. And it said that what is happening
00:16:09is a seasonal phenomenon related to weather fluctuations,
00:16:13and it appeared after the recent rains. Yes, after the recent rains,
00:16:16and it reassures the residents that this insect
00:16:20is harmless and does not transmit deadly diseases.
00:16:23Its damage is limited to annoyance and damage to some
00:16:26materials when it spreads in large numbers.
00:16:30But how to keep it away from homes?
00:16:33The first step is to turn off outdoor lights at night.
00:16:38But light is what attracts it. Install
00:16:41screens on openings, seal cracks and sewage
00:16:46garbage, wood, and dry weeds
00:16:49that provide it with shelter
00:16:52and food. One of the most important ways to keep it away from
00:16:55homes is to set up what is known as light
00:16:58traps outside the residential area. This is
00:17:01a lamp above a basin containing water and soap
00:17:05that attracts insects and collects them away from
00:17:09agricultural lands, the directorate advises
00:17:13shallow plowing and removing crop residues
00:17:16and plowing fallow lands around villages.
00:17:20Sorry, this incident sparked a great deal of interaction
00:17:23on social media. So how
00:17:26did you comment? The first comment comes from Hamid, who
00:17:30says, "Changing seasons changes the movement
00:17:33of insects and rodents, making them look for a warm and safe place
00:17:37to settle. But this does not negate that the sight is very
00:17:41frightening." And Rama Muhammad writes and says, "Oh
00:17:44my God, the sight is terrifying. There must be an emergency plan for this,
00:17:48even if it is not harmful to humans and does not transmit
00:17:50diseases. It could harm agricultural crops
00:17:53in the region."
00:17:56the clarification from the Directorate of Agriculture in Hasakah, but this is not
00:18:00enough. The sight is frightening, and the number of insects is large.
00:18:04The municipality must spray pesticides. Organizations
00:18:07must act and find a solution. People,
00:18:12the roofs. It shouldn't be that people are left alone.
00:18:16By God, and Raed Al-Za'im wrote and said,
00:18:19"A month ago, we had them in Beirut, but not in
00:18:22this quantity. They appeared after the first rain, within three
00:18:26or four days, and then disappeared. We haven't seen them
00:18:28at all." Yazan says on Facebook,
00:18:32"A natural event due to climate change and the floods that
00:18:35occurred in the region led to the exit of some insects from their places
00:18:39due to the abundance of water. But I expect there is
00:18:42an environmental problem that led to their reproduction in large numbers, which is the absence of
00:18:47the region."
00:18:52And the governorates of Raqqa, Hasakah,
00:18:55Deir ez-Zor, and areas in eastern Homs, Hama, and Aleppo
00:18:59recently witnessed heavy rainfall
00:19:02and thunderstorms accompanied by strong downdrafts that caused floods,
00:19:06torrents, and the cutting of a number of roads.
00:19:24sold in
00:19:26around us edible?
00:19:29Those packaged
00:19:32products that we buy daily,
00:19:35such as lollipops and cake slices, and so on. And away from
00:19:39the health harms that some of them may cause, and what may
00:19:43result from them in major diseases and problems,
00:19:46what about their cleanliness
00:19:49in the first place? Yesterday, the Directorate of Internal Trade
00:19:52and Consumer Protection in Homs published
00:19:55scenes from its tour of one of the sweets factories that
00:19:58produces items such as
00:20:01cake, donuts, and so on. Scenes described by many
00:20:05as shocking for what they revealed about the reality inside
00:20:09the factory. Here
00:20:13the floor. In the mixer. There is no power or strength except
00:20:16with God. It is being sold in schools, right? Or not? He is carrying
00:20:19it
00:20:23in his
00:20:28hand. This is spoiled. The whole thing is infected.
00:20:31You beat it.
00:20:37Okay?
00:20:41Oh, shame. Can it be? I have
00:20:45a worker. The amount of dirt on
00:20:48his shoes.
00:20:54Indeed, scenes like these are unacceptable in a place that
00:20:57is supposed to produce food products that people consume, especially
00:21:01since some of these products
00:21:03schools and are popular with children. The tour revealed
00:21:07a number of violations, so what are
00:21:10the most prominent ones?
00:21:11Let's watch.
00:21:15Failure to comply with health conditions was noted, evidenced
00:21:18by the presence of fallen dough and
00:21:24working dough. In addition to the issue
00:21:27of strict scrutiny of workers who handle and move things for
00:21:30packaging. The second thing is the lack
00:21:33of licenses.
00:21:40This issue received widespread attention yesterday.
00:21:43How did you comment on it? The first comment is from Majd on
00:21:46Facebook, who says, "Majd, by God, these inspection
00:21:50rounds are settling down here. May God bless you for the wonderful
00:21:53work, and we ask you not to be lenient with anyone who disrespects
00:21:57people." And Mazen comments
00:22:00and says, "Honestly, the biggest mistake
00:22:03is that you did not reveal the name of this place. It must
00:22:07be punished by mentioning its name, because
00:22:10if it knew that its establishment would be punished
00:22:14public, it would become a lesson for hundreds
00:22:18of others." And Fathi commented and said, "There are
00:22:21people who still live with the mentality of the past and have not
00:22:25been convinced that change has occurred, so there is no
00:22:29deterrent for others except firmness and enforcing the law, whether
00:22:32against the offender or the employee who is silent about
00:22:36corruption." The last comment is what
00:22:39Walid Al-Ahmed wrote on Facebook, who said,
00:22:42"We demand the implementation of a decision that obliges all food establishments and shops
00:22:46to install surveillance cameras covering
00:22:49areas of mixing and preparing materials, with clear display of
00:22:53product expiration dates in front of the camera before
00:22:56working with them, and maintaining these recordings
00:23:00for periodic review by
00:23:02the competent authorities, in order to limit the corrupt
00:23:06and to ensure the health and safety
00:23:09of consumers."
00:23:18With this, we have reached the end of Astoria for today. We will meet you tomorrow
00:23:22at the same time, 6 PM Damascus time, on the Syrian News
00:23:26Channel. Be well always, and goodbye tomorrow.
00:24:40In fact, I welcome the President and the accompanying delegation, and this
00:24:44confirms the strength and solidity of the relationship between
00:24:47Iraq and Syria, and God willing, this will be a good
00:24:50start for future and strategic projects, God
00:24:54willing.
00:24:59The two countries are linked by very great historical relations. There are also economic

00:25:12We are very happy, by God, with this
00:25:15warm reception, and we see your hearts
00:25:18welcomed us before your eyes. Geography says

00:25:32of us, and more, because our blood is
00:25:36yours and mine, God willing, one people
00:25:38living in two countries. We want to revive our history.
00:25:42We want to resume economic cooperation, political
00:25:45cooperation. We unite

00:25:51Your security is our security, and vice
