1\.

2\. Residents of Qamishlo expressed their dissatisfaction with the recent rise in the prices of diesel and basic commodities, saying that declining purchasing power and stagnant wages have made it increasingly difficult for many families to afford daily necessities and heating, particularly amid the onset of cold weather and power cuts. Participants in public protests warned of rising poverty and the inability of most residents to afford fuel at current prices. (Photos and video attached.)

3\. A total of 3,569 employees at the People's Municipality and the Water Institution in Hasakah are awaiting payment of their salaries, which have remained unpaid for three months. For some employees in the cities of Hol, Al-Alwa and Shaddadi, salary delays have reached 11 months, leading to a decline in the quality of services provided to residents.

4\. Several areas across Syria are experiencing deteriorating sanitation services, mounting waste and the spread of illegal dumping sites, amid official explanations citing shortages of resources, fuel and machinery. An estimated 17,000 tonnes of waste are generated across the country daily, exacerbating pollution, the spread of insects and diseases, and posing a threat to public health and the environment.
