Syrian Kurds Choose Delegates to People's Assembly
Elections are taking place in the Kurdish-majority areas of northeastern Syria to elect members of the People's Council, with nine members chosen in Hasakah and Qamishli. Meanwhile, the courts in Suwayda remain outside the process due to tensions and calls for greater Kurdish representation. These elections come after an agreement between Damascus and the Syrian Democratic Forces aimed at strengthening the integration of governmental structures. However, Kurdish parties criticized the mechanism, insisting that the representation does not reflect their will, as they constitute less than 20% of the population. The process of forming the council is still incomplete, with some seats in Suwayda remaining vacant.
