5:40 pm
yeah, actually uh i understood it so it might be going from 2006 on for the 2011 at best buy. and if i say it's a at the end, that is a, do you mind if they, when they can let me double check, but not of the 2000 have enough stuff to 1000 live in the say it might have been, it's the game like this. every want to go there, you go to that is not for the systemic, but just to can just look into the load off. uh, this thing is a load of, uh, people inside of you, a lot of people i'm talking about the situation. they have no food, no music. okay. uh, in a d m s b, a, a research on all of the numbers we see we,
5:41 pm
let's see that amazing can at least 17000 the time he is upset by that isn't a news of this. a body is also nobody's of all of this. the thing he's been the somebody just then the game with this people investigating you around damascus on the must have done to the side. and so you know, how is this? what about of the so it's really, it's a very good story and now it's of stuff uh up to 8 the some. uh uh, not all the media outlets on the drum is go there and we see what's happening said maya, and we'd start seeing how our displays. it's, it's, it's like really it's, it's, it's, it's not a lot of money but isn't, has nothing on it. it's really
5:42 pm
a discount. yeah. what we're looking at pictures right now and it really is like nothing we've seen before. and by what you're saying, i'm gotten even worse. sorry. go ahead. yeah. yeah. there's a place when you know it was showing, and i think this is, this is on the floor on the ball and no light, no good to go to. and also for the w. c on it's very, very, very has no i, yeah this and this, these, you see a lot of the book in your, on the torture of the bony died here because it is no what would have no phone number that kind of getting it. but some of the. ready the some of the code because also there is no heating system costs. yeah. so this the 2nd one, this is one of the uh, we call displays. it's a black hole of the,
5:43 pm
from 20112000 under that. but the some about a minute it's became a whole no one, a very, very few people to the bottom of this is that and obviously a stain bryce in a, in, in syria's past we're gonna talk a little bit more about the work your organization does. and, and what you're hearing from people who are detained and who's survived, and after the 2011. but i want to also ask, was about your film for summer. is one of the most poignant descriptions i have ever seen of what syrians, so we're fighting for during the revolution. let's take a quick look at a clip from it. and then i'll ask you about what happened to you, the samsung part of the,
5:44 pm
for the rest of the summer. so long to some of the truly phenomena attention the
5:45 pm
after facing all that you and your family were ultimately forced to flee your country. and i don't think anyone can fully understand what that means unless they go through it. i want to ask you what did a sod we're present to you? and thank you so much for us for having us. it's really hard to talk, start and listening to death because i think it's an experience we didn't even understand and i don't think even until now or even in the next 2 years, we would 3 the understand what i saw it better than to before or stood present under today to be honest, like it's just one month and 10 days. and until that point, you know, we were in totally different circumstances. different um like experience a life and now it's totally, it shouldn't be the other way around. you know,
5:46 pm
we shouldn't be happy today. we should feel like relief and it's definitely we are and there's no big space a whole but the drama that we carry, or there's a possibility that we still carry. you know, everything happened over all this years. i guess no one can really even on our service understand the impact of this even even, even recently, i think however, you know, looking at or this picture was from something i or the family just up now touring around to, you know, damascus and other cities looking for the beloved ones until now and, and off as the difficulties was through our outside. i couldn't go back yet. um, i think so many people still like me in this position because you know, we were trying to fight for the last minute to stay there. we couldn't, so we have to be now we want to be back, but unfortunately the communication around this situation,
5:47 pm
it's more complicated than we ever we even thought. and you know, really why we are a selves outside. so it's not like you can just drop your life and, and go back. i understand that. yeah, yeah. but even if you want to do this, you know, for your paper work, it's not allowing you to go by. there's so many communication around, you know, like where to go by, what's going on there, what's waiting there. um, and however, you know, like, i think the whole with all of this communication is the main kind of feeling we all have. mm hm. we edge something of the serial before. like if it wasn't possible, you know, before, before, december of 2024. uh huh. i alphretta, i want to bring you in because you managed to enter syria throughout the past decade to basically smuggle aide in and to continue working in underground humanitarian project. what did you see happen under a side?
5:48 pm
i mean, now this is a country where 90 percent of the population lives under the poverty line. infrastructure is in shambles. why have you witnessed and what is going to stay with you in terms of concerns for the present and the future? um, the product is a set of humanitarian a in a so that i seem health area was very, very obvious. especially off there to earthquake and 2020 free, which is one of the biggest project. when i smuggled money, when i entered with the us dollars, basically, and not going through the governments on those of bringing in a me, and i remember how hard it was to access certain groups of the syrian population in love, talk you that were id, peace, it was a higher risk area of getting called by the syrian intelligence. um, it was the trick here to even gain the trust of the people when doing cash
5:49 pm
assistance. because the project that me and my friends that was distributing cash money for rent assistance to get people serious the agency to decide how to spend that money. mm hm. um and obviously secretary and i also played a huge role and got one of the reasons why i was able to constantly enter syria without getting the attention dockman put me even at higher risk was because i am part of the minority. i am a part of the christian, a syrian minority that gave me less attention and allowed me to do these projects. and that is a fascinating and is going to be very interesting to see how that plays out in the future. because there are many concerns on the part of minorities right now, and we're going to talk a little bit more about that robin. i want to bring you in because as we've been discussing here so many traumas that are still being processed,
5:50 pm
we're going to take very, a very long time for syrians to actually come to terms with everything that's happened. and obviously for us to fully understand the, the damage that was inflicted, but after 13 years of war, a soft felt in 2 weeks. were you surprised and tell, tell me a little bit about the present and the challenges ahead. can the new administration rule the entire country? well, that's 2 questions. the 1st one is, was i surprised? yes i was, i mean i, on the handle, i knew that it was a sustainable. i knew that this regime had lost the trust of almost the entire population. even people who are in previous years have been loyalist cited cold war bites. you know, december 2024. almost all of those people had lost faith in the regime. it was by the economy had been destroyed, the infrastructure had been destroyed and people,
5:51 pm
there was not a future. you know, people couldn't see any future with this raising. so it was only held in place by russia and they have, um, i'm because both of those states. well basically i was wise, i have problems elsewhere. ukraine went this route. as a result of the whole thing fell very fast, may be the other fax to the final fax that was allowed. raising the whole very fast was that the rebels behaved in a way which was much more disciplined and much more politically intelligent than ever before. and that was the fact that i'm not comes on to your next question. you know, can be, come free. be this, is that something to look forward to? i hope so. i mean there are numerous problems. there's almost too much to talk about the so much to do the beat on the country has to be bro, i'm the leadership at the moment. at least the culture of the country is still not
5:52 pm
on the one leadership and we still is trial advancing on one possibly the country. turkey is presence in parts of the country. the p. k a o b s b up there. all kinds of external, our enemies, and then there are lots of internal tensions to bonds as i'd be the rebels. even though they have a questionable background at the moment, behaving in a very politically and socially intelligent manner by seeming to understand but by taught real syria by themselves. they don't have the manpower at the moment to rule syria by themselves. so by all working well with other people so far. mm hm. um. but that is definitely going to be a challenge going forward, isn't it? i mean you have a fractured country by all measures d i. b, as i mentioned at the start, you created an association for survivors of the nyah and you've been,
5:53 pm
i imagine talking to those coming out of the prison. and since assad fled, have you gotten the chance to, to encounter these people, or the families of those looking for their loved ones? can you tell us a bit about the situation right now with all the survivors actually give them a the, some of the, the 1st of the see if we receive of around 4000 request. some of the committees know the lo, looking for the phone for the husband. yeah. and what's the situation of when you will sort of the volume of the really of the a release of the, the news i'm doing now it's been, it's not stable. it's very bad. because there is no, uh, no has got a system good, no good. his good system and celia are the other than i lation of the, of the my vision. it's some of the to, to, to, to make it to give the,
5:54 pm
the president for this, the thing these, uh it is some of this, the, the any is have a, uh, a problem with, with about the, with the homes with uh, what's the zip code to oh my yeah. its really, it's uh, a very, very uh, very sad situation. but we want this uh, people, we all with the how many is uh, talking to this uh to, to uh, to get to the voices. uh and then you estimate estimation, we should listen to the, the, the thing on the, because this is going to be a, a cultural point to, i would say in terms of, of going forward and, and, and building. and you'll see a right to discovering the truth, actually figuring out everything that has happened and, and naming the culprits and, and potentially accountability even though i imagine this is going to be a huge challenge. i am so sorry,
5:55 pm
we're almost out of time. and i want to get from each one of you a sense of the current challenges, but also your hopes for the future. very briefly, if you will. um do ya, let me start with you going forward. what would you like to see happen for a new syria to emerge or? yeah, and then you will see the we need no, no, don't know what is this a feelings and no one can go to the but isn't this just talking about the someone and the government? yes, we need to stop all this thing. we need to. we need to know the names of that they need invest a minor, if it isn't whole, i'll go there. and based on this here, this is what, what we, this is all of it to be. what, what about you? what are the main challenges right now? that should be the focus of this administration, and what is your hope for syria? i think it's just one of the no problem. it. the country is no longer full for one
5:56 pm
family, for one name for one group, and it just democratic, a free respect for the country for its own own people in an equal way. i think what we've learned over these, not just these 15 years, but also 54 years is like what the 100 has been to. we wouldn't, it wouldn't never happen again. and that's where we, oh, it should be focusing on there's a huge future ahead and we are or part of that. and so there's no way you know, we could live in a country again where 1st this appeared as or space meant or bombing. understanding is part of our present. it is the history, it's something we will never be able to come over or forget and we don't want to forget and it's all start today, but it was just this, me afraid. uh, what about your views as a minority? as you said, what are your worries right now and what do you hope for the future of syria?
5:57 pm
i think my biggest worry is that the secretary and narrative that the us on authorizing has used to manipulate us will be continued now out of the years. so it is definitely a constitution dot very clearly states the protection of minorities. and that includes language that includes ethnic groups and their traditions and to move on beyond so as being reduced to religious minorities. but at the same time, i also do hall, and i actually have to say, i am positively surprised that my community, the syrian community, as well as many other minority groups as so far as shown, a lot of enthusiasm, a lot of trust and hope. but i do think for the large number of minorities that have left left on a sorry, that have left syria. and so they do need more than such promises to come back. and
5:58 pm
this is something that we urgently need because syria has lost a huge number of it's minority groups and we are an important part of serious tapestry robbing the lot. and i'm afraid that thank you so much for being part of the stream today. and thank you all for to me, and if you have a comment about our show, you can talk to us on social media, use the hash tag or the handle a g stream. and then we'll look into your feedback, take care. and i'll see you soon. for this neighborhood in the city of the days of oppression may be over, but it's cause i get to go based out so much pain. save people crying both from joy over the full of to dictate to campaign over the loss of their loved ones, returned to find my home destroyed. and yet i am happy beyond imagination about the change. a change is happening, fast homes is vibrant with life again. in 2011 homes became the 1st city or
5:59 pm
hundreds of protest as were killed by the shot said secuity falls of added smocks. the change from these, from uprising to the system. and then as if the sun rises brilliantly here, the history was written. it became theory is here, the beast in the timeless journey, is there any sign? the lease of the millions of palestinians and gaza for now stopped between an outgoing biden administration and an incoming trumpet industries. now that americans have decided to put fun back in the white house, what kind of country in the world expect the quizzical look at us politics. the
6:00 pm
bottom line, the . ready the kind of them are a kyle, this is the news our live from don't coming up in the next 60 minutes is really on a raise for janine refugee camp. at least 8 palestinians are killed and many a wounded hungry. i'm desperate for help of the month of israel's siege. people rushed towards a trucks entering garza on day 3 of the cease fire. fire the popular tourist results into kick.
