The terrorism that struck the village of HoshNasri in the Damascus countryside could not break the will of its people and their insistence on rebuilding the infrastructure and service institutions that were destroyed and sabotaged in coordination and cooperation with the Municipal Council.

Opening and paving roads, rehabilitating water, electricity and sewage networks, opening a furnace and outlets for Syria Trade, a center for serving citizens and others, were the most important work that the Municipal Council worked to implement since the liberation of the village until now.
