Northeastern Syria Fuel Price Protests
Hundreds of people protested in Qamishli city against the Syrian government's decision to raise fuel prices, including diesel and gasoline, by 40% and 26% respectively. This came amid a worsening international economic situation and deterioration of infrastructure due to years of ongoing war in Syria. The protesters pointed out that this decision increases the suffering of the poor and affects all aspects of life, calling for the prices to be reverted to their previous levels. The protests continued in several areas across the country and are among the largest demonstrations since the removal of President Bashar al-Assad, with local authorities warning of escalating resistance if the government does not withdraw its decision.
