From promises of stability to famine in eastern Syria.
According to the reports, a resident of the city of Raqqa decided to sell his son out of extreme need, and yesterday in the city of Deir ez-Zor a child died of starvation.
These events took place just months after the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) left the region, having received promises from Julani regime to provide security, stability and basic services.
The reality facing the citizens of Barakah and Deir ez-Zor raises difficult questions about what these promises actually brought.
