6:06 am
network was, what was checking to see how many pills were in this factory. this factory is one of dozens that have been found, production was on an industrial scale. these tablets help the regime survive the chart i said also use that to negotiate. he promised the arab countries he would help curb smuggling in exchange for an overlay ization of relations, all said was re integrated into the arab fold, but the trade in kept the gun only flourished. the drug is popular in the middle east and beyond, and also cheap to make those who ran this factory tried to burn it in what could have been an attempt to hide evidence. but when the opposition fighters arrived, they were able to put out the flames. the regime long denied involvement in the trade, but many say it's couldn't happen in these tightly controlled securities state like syria, without the knowledge or consent of the regime. the premiums at the moment you anyhow, there were at least $160.00 factories and he tons of secretaries and regime areas

6:08 am
a bit about activity in that area, but we, we really never knew really what was going on that deeper in the regime controlled areas. so i think it's really interesting to, to get a sense of the scale of this production, which i think is what shocking even even more than we really thought it might be. an i think we will see many more facilities. i think not just in damascus. i think in other cities and other parts of the country as well, and we just have to wait and see what, what comes out. but i think what is becoming very clear is that there is absolutely no doubt that the assad regime was very heavily involved in the cap to go on a trade manufacturing. i'm profiting across the region. but despite the fact that i'm, you know, up to the last minute they were denying it. so i think there's absolutely new don't know about the extent of the involvement. is there any military is full thing,
