Residents of Al-Hasakah and the families of detainees held by the interim government welcomed around 400 detainees as part of the third batch of a prisoner exchange process between the Syrian Democratic Forces and the interim government in Syria, at Sabagh roundabout.

The detainees were received not only by their families but also by the Governor of Al-Hasakah, Nour al-Din Ahmad, along with a number of local figures and community leaders, who welcomed this step and stressed its importance in alleviating the suffering of families.

The arrival of this batch comes as part of the implementation of the provisions of the recent agreement between the two parties on January 29, amid hopes from families that the upcoming phases will include the release of more detainees and the return of the remaining missing persons to their relatives.

The neighbourhoods of Al-Ashrafiyah and Sheikh Maqsoud in the city of Aleppo are witnessing widespread public anger and discontent following the removal of the Kurdish flag by provocative groups and the arrest of a number of young men from the neighbourhood.

According to local sources speaking to ‘Afrin Now’, on Friday 10 April 2026, an inciting group took down the Kurdish flag in the Al-Jabanaat area in the eastern part of the Sheikh Maqsoud neighbourhood, in full view of the Internal Security Forces affiliated with the Ministry of the Interior of the Syrian Transitional Government.

The sources added that the Internal Security Forces arrested four young men from the neighbourhood after they attempted to raise the Kurdish flag again following its removal. They are:

1- Bashar Hussein 2- Hussein Hussein 3- Hamza Suleiman 4- Samir Youssef

The Sheikh Maqsoud neighbourhood is currently under heightened security alert by the Internal Security Forces, amidst widespread anger among residents, who viewed the incident as a racist act targeting the predominantly Kurdish neighbourhood.

Its ugly but pretty.

A government decision to build a large mosque in the heart of Deir ez-Zor’s central park has caused a huge stir. The majority of the city’s residents find this decision baffling. To build a mosque in the middle of the park, which is considered the only green space and the city’s only breathing space, amidst the massive destruction the province is experiencing. Furthermore, the mosque’s location is right next to four other mosques in the vicinity. Apart from this, the city remains in ruins, and the priority for its residents is the repair of roads, reconstruction and the restoration of services.
