Damascus restores its intimate atmosphere

DAMASCUS, (ST)- Challenging the ongoing crisis which has been hitting the country for more than 19 months, the Damascenes insist to run a normal life with an overwhelming confidence that their homeland will emerge victorious from the battle against terrorism.

The nowadays streets and markets of Damascus are crowded with a large number of shoppers who want to buy their winter needs. Children are also seen playing safely in the city’s old allays with the pigeons flying and landing freely in their beloved city. Such a scene makes one feel optimistic as the intimate Damascene atmosphere is gradually being restored to the city.
