“The event is an important opportunity for representatives of participating youth organizations to know the reality of events in Syria so they can convey to the world a true image about what is really going on in Syria and about the steadfastness of the Syrian state and people in the face of terrorism over the past five years,” he added.

Activities included workshops, blood donation campaign in support for the Syrian Arab Army personnel, a visit to Old Homs and a visit to the martyrs cemetery.
