|| Situation in the City and Countryside ||
¤ Hama City:
Some neighborhoods of Hama city are still struggling to meet their water needs.
At around 9 o'clock morning, regime forces set off an explosive device in Janoob al-Mal'aab neighborhood, in the middle of the street across from Mahmoud Othman Agha Mosque. This came after they closed off the street, and they remained in the area for a while. In the afternoon, regime forces deployed in a number of areas, including the industrial area, al-Souq, al-Mahatta, al-Jalaa and Tareeq Halab, and some people were arrested.
In the late afternoon, security forces redeployed in Souq al-Shajara, al-Karama and al-Andalus. At least five people from al-Andalus were arrested. They were exiting the Andalus Pool next to the Workers' Union building at the time of their arrest. Sounds of gunfire were heard in Janoob al-Mal'aab, though the cause is unknown. Regime forces also deployed in the Youth Residence area and arrested a number of people.
It's important to note that Hama lives under a tight siege by regime military and security forces. Checkpoints are dispersed throughout the city, and regime forces continue to loot and raid many parts of the city. The financially situation is very difficult, especially since many merchants are taking advantage of residents in these times by overcharging them for necessary items.
Also, Assad regime forces arrested today Abdullah Tayfour at a checkpoint on Hama-Homs Road.
