00:00:03Idlib, heavy rains that fell hours ago
00:00:06caused significant damage to some camps in the governorate,
00:00:10where displaced people documented the conditions of their tents in the

00:01:16The Quneitra Governorate approved a 50% reduction
00:01:19in building permit fees in a number of border villages
00:01:23adjacent to the occupied Syrian Golan. The decision came
00:01:27under a memorandum of understanding signed in cooperation
00:01:31with the Engineers Syndicate to include 14
00:01:34villages and farms, and is limited to areas
00:01:37that do not exceed 100 square meters,
00:01:42time and effort with the aim of alleviating the financial burdens
00:01:44on the residents and strengthening their stability in the
00:01:47border areas, in light of the difficult living conditions
00:01:51and the continuation of Israeli violations, amid
00:01:54calls to expand the scope of the decision to include
00:01:58the rest of the villages and towns
00:02:02program, of the governorate.
00:02:05For more details, our correspondent for Syria TV, Mohammed Fahd, joins us from Quneitra.
00:02:09Mohammed, welcome. So, a reduction
00:02:12in building fees in the villages adjacent
00:02:15to the occupied Syrian Golan. What details
00:02:22application on do you have? Indeed, Yaman, the governor of Quneitra
00:02:27and placing a lawsuit and the Quneitra Engineers Syndicate approved it, of course, after a previous
00:02:30meeting between the Quneitra Engineers Syndicate and the
00:02:35Ukrainian weapons, head of the news from Syrian Engineers and the Governor of Quneitra.
00:02:37A memorandum of understanding was signed to
00:02:41reduce the engineering office fees,
00:02:44are varying which used to exceed five million Syrian
00:02:46pounds for every 50-square-meter building permit.
00:02:50If it was 50 square meters or more,
00:02:53the financial amounts and fees would increase
00:02:56for the citizen. After this meeting and after
00:03:00discussing the living situation of the people of Quneitra Governorate, especially
00:03:04the border villages adjacent to the ceasefire line and located within the
00:03:08buffer zone in the northern Quneitra countryside, from the town of Jubat Al-Khashab
00:03:11to the central Quneitra countryside
00:03:15pressing, while towards the town of Hamidiya, towards
00:03:16the Halabi the southern Quneitra countryside, Saida Al-Rafid Al-Muallaqa, reaching the far
00:03:20south of Quneitra, the administrative area with the
00:03:24Daraa Governorate, the fees were reduced by 50%.
00:03:28While it was 5 million for a
00:03:3050-square-meter license, today it has become two and a half
00:03:33million, approximately two and a half million, up to 100 meters, meaning
00:03:37the fees are also reduced for these building permits,
00:03:41which used to exceed five million Syrian pounds. Today,
00:03:43when citizens submit building permits
00:03:47through municipalities and through the engineering office, fees are reduced,
00:03:50especially if it is proven that they reside within these
00:03:53areas, areas within the buffer zone, within the area
00:03:57adjacent to the ceasefire line, of course, to alleviate the suffering
00:04:00of the people of Quneitra Governorate, especially these villages adjacent to the ceasefire line,
00:04:04where Israeli occupation army incursions are very
00:04:08frequent, and farmers and civilians there are being restricted
00:04:11in this area, also to stabilize the residents and to rebuild
00:04:15this area and continue construction
00:04:19within these areas. These residents
00:04:22are the ones who are strengthening the people of Quneitra Governorate
00:04:26and establishing their roots in this land to prevent displacement
00:04:30and Israeli incursions. This matter may reduce
00:04:33their suffering and keep them on their land. This
00:04:37is what was stated in the memorandum of understanding,
00:04:40of power cuts and today, the application of this
00:04:41and reliance on decree and this agreement has begun through
00:04:45markets are flooded with engineering offices and through municipalities that issue permits
00:04:48Thank you for all these details, Mohammed Fahd,
00:04:50at lower prices, our correspondent from Syria TV. You were with us from Quneitra.
00:04:54President Ahmed Al-Shara emphasized that Syria
00:04:57will rely heavily on Syrian expertise
00:05:01that has gained experience abroad and succeeded abroad,
00:05:04and sought to transfer this success story to
00:05:07the country, during his meeting with a delegation of Syrian
00:05:11experts and specialists in the technology
00:05:14and innovation sector. President Al-Shara said that Syria has
00:05:18many opportunities in light of its important geographical location
00:05:21and the absence of digital infrastructure, which allows
00:05:25it to benefit from the latest global advancements
00:05:28instead of relying on old infrastructure
00:05:31and replacing it at high
00:05:34costs. He pointed out that rebuilding from scratch
00:05:37represents an important opportunity for Syria.
00:05:41He also noted that digital infrastructure is linked
00:05:44to government institutions and reconstruction
00:05:46projects, including residential reconstruction, explaining that
00:05:50digital life is involved in various
00:05:54details
00:05:55of life.
00:06:00The General Organization for Social Insurance
00:06:04announced the launch of two new services
00:06:07for notification via text messages as part
00:06:10of its digital transformation efforts
00:06:13and to facilitate reviewers. The organization
00:06:16clarified that the first service targets
00:06:20business owners who have been warned and are delinquent in
00:06:23paying their dues for three months,
00:06:27to alert them to the need to contact the organization
00:06:30and pay their outstanding financial liabilities. The second
00:06:33service includes subscribers who are self-employed
00:06:37under Ministerial Decision No. 778
00:06:41of 2005, and are delinquent in payment
00:06:44for six months, emphasizing that
00:06:48the step aims to improve the quality
00:06:50of services and save
00:06:54for reviewers.
00:07:01The Directorate of Transport in Raqqa Governorate
00:07:04announced the official start of its work after completing
00:07:08technical preparations and linking the directorate with the relevant
00:07:11authorities. This comes after a closure that lasted
00:07:15more than 13
00:07:22years. The Director of Transport
00:07:25in Raqqa began its work by providing all
00:07:28types of services to citizens, including
00:07:31special inspection reports for the court, and
00:07:34including placing and lifting mortgage liens,
00:07:39lien on cars. Of course,
00:07:43in terms of linking with other entities,
00:07:47we have banks that have not yet been activated
00:07:50for electronic payment. Currently, they have not been activated.
00:07:54The traffic branch department is ready. The building
00:07:57is completely ready. The traffic administration came and
00:08:00took its place to issue traffic clearance
00:08:04for cars, because traffic clearance is essential
00:08:08for car renewal and licensing of vehicles, European entry. We will do
00:08:11it all, God willing.
00:08:14Of course, God willing,
00:08:17we still have the Peace Spring area and the Autonomous
00:08:20Administration. The integration is currently ongoing
00:08:24and not yet complete. Once the integration is complete,
00:08:27we will provide the following service to citizens, God willing, in Peace
00:08:30Spring and the Autonomous Administration.
00:08:33Leather shoe manufacturing workshops in Aleppo
00:08:37are facing increasing difficulties due to rising
00:08:40production costs and competition from imported
00:08:43shoes, which puts artisans before challenges to continue
00:08:47their profession
00:08:48and maintain their workshops.
00:08:52Leather shoe manufacturing workshops in Aleppo
00:08:56are witnessing a sharp decline in a profession for which the city
00:08:59was known for decades and employed hundreds
00:09:02of workshops and thousands of artisans. Rising production
00:09:06costs, along with competition from imported
00:09:09products, pose challenges that threaten
00:09:12its continuation. The difficulties we are facing are the same, nothing
00:09:16has changed. Electricity prices are high,
00:09:20and in addition, we are adding an
00:09:23ampere. The workforce has become scarce because workers' wages
00:09:26are low and not enough, and if we raise
00:09:29wages, it's not enough for us. Prices are
00:09:32high for everything. If you raise workers' wages,
00:09:36them, but it's not enough for them.
00:09:39Workshop owners link the price increase to the
00:09:43rising costs of leather and raw materials,
00:09:47in addition to workers' wages and electricity bills
00:09:50due to long hours
00:09:54generators. In contrast,
00:09:57imported shoes from China and Turkey
00:10:02which led to a decline in demand for local products
00:10:06despite their quality. I came after the liberation. I
00:10:09said my country, I brought my money,
00:10:13I brought my work here to open a business, and he told me that since
00:10:16then until now, I'm at a loss. The money
00:10:20I brought is almost gone. But the problem
00:10:23is that I bring workers, and
00:10:29they don't agree. I bring goods that are expensive. Brother,
00:10:32I have goods that come from China
00:10:35cheaper than what you have. This is the
00:10:38reason why the business is going
00:10:42backward. Traders believe that the demand for imported
00:10:45shoes is not only related to price,
00:10:47but also to their ability to achieve
00:10:51a better profit margin, in addition to their
00:10:55variety and availability at competitive
00:10:58prices that meet consumer desires.
00:11:01For foreign or national goods, honestly,
00:11:04people are demanding according to their purchasing
00:11:07power. But most are demanding Chinese
00:11:11products due to their quality and clean
00:11:14work. National products are a bit worn
00:11:19The quality of shoes is a bit worn out due
00:11:22to the lack of raw materials and
00:11:26machines, and improving the quality of work
00:11:30in factories. With these challenges continuing,
00:11:33a number of artisans were forced to close
00:11:38the profession permanently, while the younger generation avoids
00:11:42learning it, facing one of Aleppo's oldest
00:11:46crafts with the risk of decline after
00:11:50decades of its presence in local markets
00:11:53and competition with foreign
00:11:55products. Farmers in the Idlib countryside began
00:11:59the olive harvest season amid expectations of
00:12:01an abundant yield,
00:12:07with the fruit load of trees estimated
00:12:10at about 85%, coinciding with the
00:12:14continuation of harvesting and sorting operations in preparation
00:12:18for marketing and pressing. The Surani
00:12:21or Ma'arri, as it is locally
00:12:24known, is one of the most prominent varieties for which
00:12:28Idlib is famous, along with other
00:12:31secondary varieties such as Abu Shawka, Al-Nassasi, Al-Zayti,
00:12:34and Al-Shami, which
00:12:37differ in their characteristics and uses. At the
00:12:41Jeddah Conference in 1910, a decision was issued
00:12:44by the economic conferees that the city
00:12:46of Idlib is the best in the world
00:12:49in terms of olive season, taste, quality,
00:12:53and production. It's a good
00:12:55season this year, thank God, the olives are good,
00:12:59and from now on, people will start harvesting olives.
00:13:02Usually, at the end of October,
00:13:06olive harvesting begins. So we are at
00:13:09the beginning now, we are collecting the olives
00:13:12and working according to the usual customs
00:13:16in olive production. The harvest dates vary
00:13:18between regions of the governorate depending
00:13:22on the type of olive, the degree of
00:13:25ripeness of the fruits, and the climatic conditions.
00:13:29Some fruits are designated for table use
00:13:32and others are transported to olive presses.
00:13:35The Surani is suitable for both pickling and
00:13:41or Majhoul is designated for
00:13:45preparing provisions. There are different types
00:13:48of olives. There's the Ma'arri, the Surani.
00:13:52Some people, each region has its
00:13:56own names. We
00:13:59say the Halabi is used for pickling,
00:14:02for making provisions, for pressing. This
00:14:05type that we are working with is
00:14:09exclusively for this. Some people sort
00:14:12some types from it. Some people like to
00:14:15also take some for provisions. They sort
00:14:18the green ones from it for provisions. They take them to
00:14:22the wholesale market.
00:14:25Farmers describe this year's crop as
00:14:28good compared to previous seasons,
00:14:31hoping that its improvement will reflect on their
00:14:34income and help them cover the
00:14:38costs of caring for the trees
00:14:41and harvesting. With trees laden
00:14:43with fruit, Idlib appears
00:14:47to be facing a bountiful season that
00:14:51promises good things, but the abundance of
00:14:55the crop does not necessarily mean greater
00:14:57profits for farmers or lower prices
00:15:01for consumers. The season remains
00:15:05subject to market developments. Elaaf

00:15:12The General Authority for Ghab Management
00:15:15and Development denied the circulating accusations
00:15:19regarding raiding homes and confiscating firewood
00:15:22from residents during a forestry campaign
00:15:25in the Ain Al-Kroum area in Hama
00:15:29countryside. The authority stated in a
00:15:32statement that what some social media
00:15:35accounts circulated about information and
00:15:39accusations against the employees of the Forestry Directorate
00:15:56is incorrect and does not reflect the
00:16:00truth of what happened, pointing out that the
00:16:04campaign was carried out in coordination
00:16:08with the administration of the Directorate and
00:16:11the Ain Al-Kroum sub-district department to
00:16:14control firewood collection
00:17:35violations and implement existing laws and regulations.
00:17:39The authority stressed its right to take
00:17:43legal action against anyone who is proven
00:17:46to have deliberately published false information or
00:17:49slandered its employees. The Syrian Ministry of
00:17:53Culture mourned the poet and painter
00:17:56Fatima Al-Suwada, who passed away in
00:18:00Istanbul after a struggle with cancer,
00:18:04leaving behind a literary
00:18:09and artistic legacy and a prominent
00:18:13presence in the Syrian cultural scene. More
00:18:17about her in the following article.
00:18:20US President Donald Trump announced that
00:18:24Russia and Ukraine have reached an
00:18:27energy truce, to take effect immediately.
00:18:30Trump said on his Truth Social
00:18:34page that the two sides agreed to
00:18:38cease targeting energy facilities, without
00:18:41disclosing further details about the scope
00:18:45of the agreement or its implementation mechanism.
00:18:48No official confirmation
00:19:10has been issued from Moscow or
00:19:13Kyiv regarding reaching the truce.
00:19:17Two European officials told CNN that US President
00:19:20Donald Trump warned Ukraine that he would
00:19:24stop intelligence support if it did not
00:19:27stop attacking Russian
00:19:32energy facilities. The network added
00:19:35that Washington also warned Kyiv that
00:19:38it would stop Europe from buying
00:19:42US weapons for it if it
00:19:45continued its attacks. According to the
00:19:49network, these warnings were issued by
00:19:52the US Departments of State and
00:19:56Defense during
00:19:58the weekend to officials in Ukraine
00:20:02and Europe, and included direct
00:20:05contacts from the US military to
00:20:08Ukrainian military leaders.
00:20:12For more details,
00:20:13our correspondent from Moscow, Laila Kaf
00:20:17Al-Ghazal, joins us. Laila, welcome.
00:20:21So, American warnings to Ukraine
00:20:25against targeting Russian energy sources
00:20:28or facilities. What are the
00:20:32reactions you have in Moscow?
00:20:35Hello, Yaman. First of all, it
00:20:39should be mentioned that the official
00:20:43spokesperson for the Kremlin, Dmitry Peskov,
00:20:46denied having any
00:20:51information about the alleged agreement
00:20:53announced by US President Donald Trump
00:20:57regarding a Russian-Ukrainian truce in the energy
00:21:00sector. He said that he highly
00:21:04appreciates American efforts
00:21:08aimed at a settlement, and
00:21:11that the negotiation process between Moscow
00:21:14and Washington on Ukraine is ongoing.
00:21:18He stressed that the Kremlin
00:21:20would provide
00:21:22details of the agreement if
00:21:25it is reached. As for the
00:21:29from Trump to Kyiv regarding
00:21:34to intelligence support, as
00:21:37reported in Western and American media,
00:21:41based on diplomatic
00:21:42sources, federal media
00:21:46also covered these leaks,
00:21:50but it should be noted that
00:21:53this information and these circulating
00:21:56news remain at the level
00:22:00of analysis or leaks
00:22:02and have not been confirmed
00:22:05by any official party,
00:22:09whether in Moscow or
00:22:12in Kyiv, regarding the
00:22:15accuracy of this issue. Also,
00:22:19experts differed
00:22:21in their assessment of
00:22:25the nature of this threat.
00:22:28Some in Russia claim
00:22:32that this threat
00:22:35was clear and direct,
00:22:38but others claim that
00:22:42the United States mentioned
00:22:45that this threat was
00:22:49in the form of a reminder
00:22:53that the United States has
00:22:55been providing intelligence support
00:22:58to Kyiv since the
00:23:02beginning of what is called the
00:23:05Russian military operation, especially
00:23:08in Ukraine. And Washington
00:23:11is also considered
00:23:14the main supporter or the main
00:23:18financier of
00:23:25in addition to Western aid,
00:23:28of course. So there
00:23:34interpretations of these leaks,
00:23:37and so far there is no
00:23:40official confirmation or denial
00:23:44of the accuracy of this information.
00:23:47In addition, the Kremlin
00:23:51confirmed that Moscow is
00:23:54prepared
00:25:00announcement of a ceasefire in the
00:25:03energy sector
00:25:05between Russia
00:25:14and Ukraine. Kallas expressed
00:25:18her hope for
00:25:22an agreement that would not lead
00:25:25to casualties
00:25:32and added that
00:25:34it is unclear
00:25:39whether Moscow will adhere
00:25:41to the ceasefire.
00:25:56Kallas called on the United
00:25:59States to impose sanctions on Russia,
00:26:04noting that the European Union will
00:26:08urge Washington to do so
00:26:11until the
00:26:12war
00:26:17between the two sides effectively
00:26:19ends. Thank you for
00:26:23watching. Farewell. We were sitting
00:26:25inside, and these people
00:26:29here, we cry over them,
00:26:32by God. We hear the pain
00:26:35of their bones breaking.
00:26:39Every blanket I smell,
00:26:42I feel there's blood mixed
00:26:44with the smell
00:26:50of humans. When they
00:26:52call our
00:26:56name for torture, you truly don't
00:27:00know if you'll come
00:27:05back alive or dead.
00:27:08I remember hearing
00:27:10the gray hair
00:27:14turn white on my head.
00:27:17The soul that is tortured is the one
00:27:34that doesn't
00:27:36leave.

00:29:06Syria TV, a closer
00:29:09world
00:29:11and a clearer
00:29:14picture. The truth
00:29:17does not always
00:29:20lie in what we
00:29:23see, but in
00:29:27what was missing
00:29:29or kept from the
00:29:33scene. Among
