|| Situation in the City and Countryside ||
¤ Hama City:
Regime forces launched a campaign of arrests in Tal al-Dabagha today, searching houses and arresting a number of young men. They also raided al-Faraya neighborhood, after surrounding it from most sides. We have not been able to document the names of those detained. 

Economic Report:
As the regime is trying to bring down the value of the dollar, security forces raided a number of currency exchange centers and arrested a number of people, including a man from the Baroudi family. They stole money from the shop owners as well. 
We have seen this recurring in numerous areas under regime control. The value of the dollar drops for a few days after these campaigns, but then rises once again. 
The exchange rate in Hama for the US Dollar is about 215 - 220-230. 
One gram of 21 carat gold is being advertised at 8000 SYP, but being sold at 8300 and purchased at 9000.

¤ Hama Countryside: 
Eastern Hama Countryside:
A group of fighters from the Ahfad al-Rasool Fighting Group in Hama collaborated with the Shaikh Mohammad al-Hamed Battalion yesterday in an attack on a military convoy that included three pick-ups with mounted machine guns on Salamieh-Raqqa Road. Intense clashes broke out, and a number of shabiha were killed. 

Northern Hama Countryside:
Heavy shelling of Kafranbooda, al-Qsabeya and B'aarbo left one person dead and a number of others wounded.
