Tragic story from Denmark. Syrian refugee Akram Bathiesh dies of a heart attack after receiving the decision of the Danish authorities to withdraw his residence permit and asylum status and give him a month to leave Denmark to Syria.
Denmark claims areas like Damascus or regime-held territories in Syria are safe and therefore Syrians in Denmark who come from these areas have to go back. Syrians have been reporting for months about similar decisions from Danish authorities.
Fayza Satouf, 25 y.o, has also lost her residence permit and has to leave Denmark within the next 30 days. “Assad still in power. How can we go back?” Said Fayza to Danish newspaper B.T.

I find this new study from @jusoorstudies as detailed as terrifying. Syria's death toll has crossed one million. Almost half the population is dead, imprisoned or displaced. Massive demographic changes.
Syria's overall population as assumed in 2021 is 24m. Only 16m are still in Syria, divieded in around 9m in Regime-held areas, 4m in opposition-held areas and 3m in SDF-held areas. 8,8m are living in diaspora and refugee camps. 1 million have been either killed or disappeared.
The study speaks of 4 massive waves of displacements/emigration due to varios reasons like the lack of safety and security, hard economic / political conditions, the lack of health care and others.
Sarout was the former goalkeeper of Syria's football team before the Syrian revolution started. He was one of the first who join the uprising in Homs, asking for Freedom and dignity.
Sarout became so famous among the rebels by leading most of the demonstrations in his hometown Homs. He composed and sang many songs against the regime and criticise it and its leader Bashar Assad.

Sarout was called "The Syrian Revolution Singer" after leading the demos. His songs went viral across Syria and every demonstration in the country was singing his words.
THREAD: The full story of Syria's #Raqqa 'The Capital of Liberation' from the uprising until the devastation:
1-History:
Raqqa is the Syrian city, situated northern eastern Syria. 1970s the Euphrates dam was built and turned the poor small town of Raqqa into a city.
During the evolution process of Syria, Raqqa's share of development projects was small & most of the resources were stolen by Regime's officials and the state budget was being stolen by Hafiz Assad and his loyal elite. Therefore Raqqa city remained one of the poor cities of Syria
