Syria's Fuel Protest Spread
Reports have circulated about ongoing protests in Syria in protest against the fuel price hike decision. Demonstrations have escalated in several areas, including Deir Ezzor, Raqqa, Hasakah, and Tel Tamr. Main roads such as the M4 international route and the Bab al-Salama border crossing have been disrupted. The protests by residents have involved setting tires on fire and blocking roads, as a response to the worsening living conditions. Notably, most of the protesters belong to the social base supporting President Ahmad al-Shir’s government. These protests occur despite no improvement in economic conditions, even after government changes. The demonstrators are demanding the suspension of the decision issued by the Minister of Energy, pending the parliamentary hearing scheduled for Thursday.
