Security measures at Deir ez-Zor Airport reopening
The Syrian Deir ez-Zor Governorate continues to face security challenges, with an increase in attacks by ISIS. Since the beginning of the year, 34 attacks have been recorded, accounting for nearly half of all attacks across Syria. At the same time, Deir ez-Zor International Airport has reopened after a 14-year closure, with the arrival of its first direct flight from Kuwait. This step aims to strengthen the airport’s position and facilitate access to the eastern region, which includes significant oil and gas fields. This comes as part of a developmental plan that includes infrastructure and road improvements, alongside ongoing security confrontations against ISIS cells, which have become increasingly reliant on sleeper cells to carry out unexpected attacks.
