The distribution of humanitarian aid to the displaced in al-Jazira Canton continues, as more than 500 aid trucks have arrived in the canton’s cities and towns. The shipments included food and medical supplies, children’s needs, blankets, mattresses, and heating materials, amid the ongoing arrival of relief convoys and the continued efforts of the Autonomous Administration to shelter the displaced.

Traders from the Damascus Chamber of Commerce, the oldest in the world, expressed their dissatisfaction with the policies of the Syrian Interim Government, accusing it of marginalization, corruption, and excluding Damascus traders from tenders and investments in favor of networks confined to Idlib. They stated they are no longer able to endure what they described as “deliberate exclusion” and the obstruction of their businesses.

Kovan Kanou, Secretary of the Kurdish Democratic Roj Party in Syria, affirmed that conspiracies against the Kurdish people across the four parts of Kurdistan are still ongoing. He said the agreement reached in Rojava is positive in preventing a war of extermination and opens the way to guaranteeing the rights of peoples in the constitution. (Photos and video attached).

Displaced people are living in 70 shelter centers in Kobani, including schools, mosques, kindergartens, halls, and empty shops. However, these centers remain insufficient to accommodate the large numbers, amid appeals to lift the ongoing siege affecting more than 600,000 people—both residents and displaced.

Observers said the Syrian Interim Government is working to highlight the jihadist threat to consolidate its authority, while the U.S. escalation against Iran falls within the framework of careful phase management rather than a decision for a full-scale war. Meanwhile, Europe stands at a critical crossroads.
