00:00:00It is included with us, meaning we are not in
00:00:02an insurance program. Um, there are no subscriptions,
00:00:06for example, from the farmer, but rather it is according to the available
00:00:09capabilities of the fund. It is possible to raise the amounts
00:00:13of compensation, and it is possible to reduce them. We, at the beginning
00:00:15of liberation,
00:00:19the fall of the former regime, the percentages ranged between 5%
00:00:23and 10%. Um, by a directive from the Minister of Agriculture,
00:00:28Mazen, displaced from it was raised and approved by the council to raise it between
00:00:3010% and 20%. So, effectively,
00:00:34we are trying to cover the largest number of farmers
00:00:36and we are trying, as much as possible, to compensate our
00:00:39fellow farmers so that they remain within the agricultural production circle
00:00:43and do not leave the production circle.
00:00:46reading of the reality Is there any other support that will be provided to farmers apart from these
00:00:50compensations?
00:00:52These compensations are from the fund for mitigating the effects of drought and natural disasters.
00:00:56It is a fund
00:00:58Marwa. First, that compensates fellow farmers on the condition of a natural
00:01:01disaster occurring. Uh-huh. I saw on social
00:01:05media that there were questions about fires. Fires
00:01:09are not a natural disaster, but rather they are caused by
00:01:12an actor and are not a natural disaster, meaning
00:01:16they are not classified as natural disasters. As for the support
00:01:19provided by the Ministry of Agriculture, it will, of course,
00:01:23support wheat seeds this year, God willing,
00:01:25with a large amount
00:01:29by providing seeds through the Public Corporation for more seeds for
00:01:32fellow farmers at
00:01:35encouraging prices, God willing. We are
00:01:38trying to restore the agricultural sector to its former
00:01:41glory and luster, as it always was. Uh-huh.
00:01:46with closure. Uh-huh. How many What is the next plan for the ministry
00:01:50regarding support? Yes.
00:01:53Of course, as you know, previously, the Al-Qard Al-Hassan (Good Loan) project was launched
00:01:57last year. Farmers were given
00:02:00seeds and fertilizers
00:02:03for the entire wheat crop in
00:02:06the last season. The Ministry of Agriculture is currently
00:02:10working on approving a new Al-Qard Al-Hassan project
00:02:13to compensate to help fellow farmers
00:02:17carry out these tasks. It is still under study, God willing.
00:02:20The specialists will see
00:02:23the repercussions of it and its approval or rejection. Thank
00:02:26you very much, Dr. Muhammad Sayleen, Director of Agricultural Production Support from
00:02:30Damascus. Thank you very much. God
00:02:33bless you.
00:02:43The Amal Step Center in Idlib faces the risk
00:02:47of closure due to a lack of necessary support
00:02:50to ensure its continued provision of educational
00:02:53and rehabilitation services to more than 200
00:02:56male and female students with disabilities.
00:03:02convoy is the seventh
00:03:06Of course, the most important problems our center
00:03:09last year to return them to their homes Aleppo, from suffers from are the problems of a complete lack of support
00:03:12for this place. Our place was established through individual
00:03:16efforts, relying on male
00:03:18TV Radio on and female volunteers from various specializations who provided their services
00:03:21to these children. We came together with one heart
00:03:25can this center and one goal: that a child with special needs is capable of making miracles.
00:03:29Of course, the importance of our place is that it is the first place
00:03:34that humanitarian in northern Syria or in Idlib that provides educational services.
00:03:36Our services are affiliated with the Ministry of Education. The child
00:03:42simple people who with Down syndrome needs a school that cares for him, a humane place that truly cares for him. Every day
00:03:45we have new registrations, especially since there is a major closure
00:03:49of centers for people with special needs and great pressure on these
00:03:52centers due to the complete lack of this support. Approximately
00:03:56250 children of various conditions, children with Down syndrome,
00:04:00children with special needs.
00:04:02it is a demographic characteristic Orphans are provided with education, rehabilitation, inclusion, physical
00:04:05therapy, and all special services. And now they are waiting for
00:04:09any conscientious person
00:04:10to take initiative
00:04:16towards them. You came as an orphan.
00:04:20My mom told me when
00:04:23reading of the reality I was little that I can't feel the oven. And then it became
00:04:27like this. Then
00:04:30at the time of treatment, at seven months until now,
00:04:34I am treating him at school, and my mother
00:04:37does the treatment at home.
00:04:40I don't want the school to close
00:04:43because so that
00:04:46other schools don't beat me
00:04:50and make fun of me
00:04:53and beat me normally, and I
00:04:58identity to ensure their don't want my friends and the rest of my friends. I don't want them to be expelled from school.
00:05:12It is not right for a child with a disability to find
00:05:16a place to learn or a space to help him
00:05:19discover his abilities, but rather it is a right that should be
00:05:23available to him. And in a country where years of war
00:05:27have left many children with amputated limbs,
00:05:30in addition to other groups that need special
00:05:34care and rehabilitation, the need for
00:05:37centers that open their doors to them and give them
00:05:41opportunities for education and integration,
00:05:44away from the obstacles that their circumstances
00:05:48or society's view of them may impose, seems greater. So, to what
00:05:51extent are these opportunities available in Syria,
00:05:55and what do these children need to be an active part of
00:05:58society? To talk more about this topic, we are joined
00:06:02by Marwa Suleiman Awad, Director of the Amal
00:06:05Step Center from Idlib. Welcome to us, Ms.
00:06:11who is responsible for supporting this center?
00:06:14Hello, Ms. Catherine, thank you very much for your interaction on this topic,
00:06:18as it has a very positive effect on the souls of children.
00:06:21In the beginning, the efforts were individual when we established the place in
00:06:252020/2021. We started with individual efforts, and then there was local
00:06:29encouragement for such
00:06:33initiatives. And today, support still comes from
00:06:36individual efforts. Now, individual efforts and philanthropists,
00:06:40but after the liberation or liberation, we faced
00:06:43major problems in this regard. There was an almost
00:06:47complete cessation. They considered that Syria had recovered and that
00:06:50there was no longer any need to donate to these children.
00:06:54So, there was almost a cessation, and now we are threatened
00:06:58male and female students are in this center? We don't have
00:07:02an accurate statistic because almost all the centers
00:07:06around us or that were established have closed. So,
00:07:08currently, the numbers we have are 250
00:07:12to 260 children on a daily basis. We don't have
00:07:16registrations. Uh-huh. Are there other centers
00:07:19that care for children with disabilities in
00:07:22Syria for free? Now, within Idlib city,
00:07:25I don't know about outside Idlib city, but within Idlib city, we have
00:07:29one center, and that center charges fees. There are no free
00:07:33centers at all. Uh-huh. What services does the center
00:07:37provide? The services are comprehensive
00:07:40for the child's needs: educational services (formal and informal),
00:07:44physical therapy, psychological support,
00:07:47as well as motor and psychological rehabilitation for the child.
00:07:50And all these services are completely free.
00:07:53What are the conditions that must be met, or the conditions
00:07:57available in the center for these children to be registered?
00:08:00As long as the child has a disability,
00:08:04they are considered accepted by us. However, we have one
00:08:07problem, which is children with hyperactivity or attention
00:08:10deficit. We have a problem combining children with attention
00:08:14deficit and hyperactivity with paralysis, as this harms the child unintentionally.
00:08:18We do not have these programs.
00:08:21Do you have specialized staff to deal with
00:08:24these children? All our staff are psychologically,
00:08:27educationally, and academically qualified
00:08:31to deal with this segment of children.
00:08:34To what extent
00:08:38continue to operate without funding?
00:08:42They will hear the children's voices. We have launched many appeals.
00:08:46I have appeared with you before in a report about the same
00:08:49issue, and I told them that when we make reports,
00:08:53we memorize what we say. We need a thousand voices to reach
00:08:57these children and one conscience to hear them. So we need to convey the voices of these
00:09:00children to the concerned authorities, whether organizations,
00:09:04supporters, philanthropists, or anyone. It is essential for the children
00:09:07to continue. We have a real societal problem here.
00:09:10When parents bring their children, they are more tired
00:09:14than their children. So, we are facing a real problem,
00:09:17both for parents and
00:09:20children. You mentioned
00:09:23that you had previously appealed about the same issue
00:09:26through Syria TV. Did
00:09:30support continue during that period?
00:09:34There was support from associations, but it was quarterly,
00:09:37meaning this support was not sufficient or complete. It could cover
00:09:41quarterly staff salaries,
00:09:44but complete support for this place has not happened yet.
00:09:48Well, have you resorted to, for example, ministries
00:09:52or Idlib Governorate for help? We tried with everyone,
00:09:55but God willing, the children
00:09:58did not get their share. And we knocked on the doors of organizations,
00:10:01and the answer was clear: there is no support
00:10:04or we don't have funding. We wish
00:10:08you continued success and that your voice reaches. Thank you very much, Marwa Suleiman
00:10:25Awad, Director With the approach of winter,
00:10:29the needs of the displaced from Suweida residing in one of
00:10:32the shelters in the eastern countryside of Daraa are exacerbated due to the lack
00:10:36of heating supplies, food and medical materials,
00:10:39and the scarcity of aid provided by government agencies
00:10:43and humanitarian organizations, which places families before
00:10:45increasing living challenges
00:10:47with falling temperatures.
00:10:53Suweida, tries to repair his modest tent
00:10:56that shelters him with his family,
00:11:00preparing for winter. In our shelter center
00:11:03in the eastern countryside of Daraa, which includes about 50
00:11:07families, the displaced suffer from a lack of mattresses,
00:11:09blankets, and shelter materials,
00:11:13as well as the high prices of fuel We are at a critical time,
00:11:17especially now, with winter approaching. We lack
00:11:20heating and clothes.
00:11:24We lack blankets,
00:11:27clothes, and tarpaulins. If
00:11:31I want to put a tarpaulin on the tent, I can't get tarpaulins for the firewood.
00:11:34I mean, you saw the fire. If there's a fire, we have nothing
00:11:38but to pick up plastic bags and garbage to make
00:11:42a cooking pot or make a cup of tea
00:11:45on it. Families in the center are distributed
00:11:49between tents and a building that is not adequately prepared
00:11:53for residence. The displaced also complain of a severe shortage of
00:11:56food and medical supplies, in light
00:12:00of the weak response of the government and humanitarian organizations
00:12:03to their needs, as they say.
00:12:07My husband is disabled. Even my grandchildren
00:12:09are minors. I have no
00:12:12supporter. There is no financial liquidity. Organizations
00:12:15come, take records, and then they leave
00:12:18and no one comes back to us. No financial
00:12:21aid. I mean, the aid that
00:12:25is enough for the house or enough for the family.
00:12:27Medical organizations no longer
00:12:30visit us. As for winter,
00:12:33we don't have heating oil. Last year, we received
00:12:36heating oil in April, after winter
00:12:39ended. The displaced from Suweida
00:12:42residing in this center hope that their suffering
00:12:45will receive attention through a rapid response
00:12:49from the government and humanitarian organizations
00:12:52that will contribute to alleviating their burdens
00:12:55and helping them
00:12:57face winter.
00:12:59We continue with you in Ain Syria, and after
00:13:02the break,

00:13:08its presence despite the development of industries.
00:13:25Syria Radio is with you wherever you are. From
00:16:40Your origin is not Arab, you are remnants, you are Turks,
00:16:44you are remnants. Therefore, neither my uncle, nor my grandfather,
00:16:47nor my father participated in political life, which lasted only two
00:16:50years. The storyteller in
00:16:53Damascus is not really a profession,
00:16:57it is a demographic characteristic and part of the historian's spontaneous Damascus
00:17:01nature. The ordinary man was a barber
00:17:05and a storyteller, telling what he heard and recording
00:17:08it in colloquial dialect. When Hafez al-Assad carried
00:17:12out his coup, called the Corrective Movement
00:17:15on November 16, 1970, they wrote for him
00:17:18at the entrance of Al-Hamidiyah Souk: "We asked God for help, and He sent
00:17:22us Hafez al-Assad," meaning this is the one who will protect us from
00:17:26this communist tide. But this is a very harsh judgment. Avshalom Feinberg
00:17:29has a strange story I read when I was a child.
00:17:33He died, and they say he had date pits
00:17:36in his pocket. No one found his body,
00:17:39and the wind buried the body. With time,
00:17:42a date palm tree grew from the date pits
00:17:45in his pocket. They actually buried him under the palm
00:17:49tree, and he became a national hero among the Jews. His famous book,
00:17:53The Seven Pillars
00:17:55of Wisdom, to whom is it dedicated?
00:17:59To S.A. I led a group of
00:18:02courageous men to achieve your dream of
00:18:04a national homeland
00:18:24for you. A convoy of 372
00:18:28families set off from the shelter centers
00:18:31and camps in Hasakah towards their original villages
00:18:34and towns in the countryside of Ras al-Ayn. The current
00:18:39for the displaced of Ras al-Ayn residing in Hasakah, as the first
00:18:43convoys began in August
00:19:00after years of displacement. Returning to the devastated area,
00:19:04demolished homes, no
00:19:08proper infrastructure. We hope
00:19:11organizations will contribute to providing
00:19:15aid to these poor,
00:19:19have nothing but God's mercy to help
00:19:23them and provide them with aid, even if it only alleviates
00:19:26their suffering a little and brings a smile and joy
00:19:30to their children. In the end, we thank
00:19:34all parties that contributed
00:19:38to this return and hope that it
00:19:40will continue until
00:19:42the end of the displacement camps.
00:19:46Minister of Social Affairs Hind Qabwat said
00:19:50that the proposal to grant citizenship to children of Syrian
00:19:54women married to non-Syrians has reached the approval
00:19:57stage, stressing the work on legal
00:20:00and administrative reforms to address the issues of
00:20:03identity documents for children and empower mothers
00:20:07to grant their children the right to belong to their homeland.
00:20:11Qabwat explained that the absence of legal
00:20:14documents exacerbates the risks of statelessness
00:20:17and marginalization of children, especially in cases of displacement
00:20:21and the father's absence, noting the lack of complete
00:20:24statistics so far on the number of affected
00:20:27children, and reiterating the welcome of the return
00:20:30of the Kurds whom the overthrown regime deprived of their
00:20:35rights, while emphasizing shared responsibility
00:20:39towards the children who were
00:20:40in Al-Hol
00:23:04concludes this episode of Ain Syria. Thank
00:23:19you for watching, and goodbye.
