Eldorado Posted December 5, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 5, 2022 A protester and a policeman have reportedly been killed during rare demonstrations in the southern Syrian city of Sweida. Crowds angry because of the worsening economic conditions in Syria stormed the governor's office. Eyewitnesses say the protesters set fire to the building amid exchanges of gunfire in the Druze-majority city. Earlier about 200 demonstrators were reportedly calling for President Bashar al-Assad's overthrow. Syria is in the grip of a severe economic downturn. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-63852389 1 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl.Of.Trumps Posted December 6, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Syria and Libya, two war-torn countries, extremely poor. Oh, dear. But now that the IS and al Qaeda groups have been trimmed back in Syria, maybe Syria can get going again. I wish the people luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
