President Al-Assad to the teams that put out the fires in Lattakia: You provide an example of bravery

Lattakia (ST): President Bashar Al-Assad visited the forests of the northern countryside of Lattakia, which were exposed to fires during the past days. He affirmed that the teams that put out the fires presented an example of valor, as the battle is not only a war and a weapon, but there is something equivalent to it with the same danger and perhaps more difficult

President Al-Assad said to the members of the civil defence, fire brigade, forestry protection staff and the army: You have made great efforts in very difficult circumstances that can be likened to the battles that were taking place. The president said “ If we want to describe this act, I simply do not exaggerate and I do not like exaggeration, it is a heroic act.”

President Al-Assad added: It is a  heroic act by everyone who contributed, whether you were in the army or civil defense or from the civil society, and any one of you could have been surrounded, and some of you were surrounded, and we heard details of actions that are really heroic, and they therefore give a message in the light of the difficult circumstances that Syria is going through, and what we see of frustrations, people do not cry, but rather fight, and you embodied this image and gave the image of valor.

President Al-Assad continued: When we say a valiant army, we have proven that the Syrian citizen is valiant. If the citizen was not valiant, the army could not be valiant. This is valor, and this is loyalty and attachment to the homeland, meaning that none of you would have been willing to sacrifice if he had not had the feeling that this land is like his home, and these trees are his children, brothers, family, wife, or husband, father and mother. In fact, this image was transmitted and you were able to do so in a record time, although we communicated with friends and they provided us with mechanisms that arrived late, but it is not a default on their part, but rather a result of the circumstances that the fires went through.

President Al-Assad said: We have two months full of challenges, these two months we must try later to strengthen the measures that we talked about in part, and you must present something systematic in them for us to rely on as a state or as an executive authority, because at any moment fires of this kind can break out. The problem is that some people, or most of the people, mourned, and there is no one who did not grieve over it, but the issue is not grief.. This is a very expensive national wealth.. It affects trees.. It affects mountains.. It affects people’s livelihood because it affects tourism.. Rather, it affects biodiversity “animals.” Insects, birds, wild animals, etc.” They are an integral damage.. It was not an easy process at all that you could present what you presented, however, if fires occurred later and we were not able to deal with them, then in perhaps years or decades we will lose a real national wealth that reflects on all of us over the whole country.

President Al-Assad went on to say: There is no doubt that the private losses this time are less than the last time, and the general losses are also less than the last time several years ago, and this is due to the experience, the rush, and the speed with which you took the initiative, and yet we want to think about how to protect the burned areas. Now we think naturally.. How do we protect the areas that were not burned in order to preserve what remains? In fact, today, protecting what has been burnt is more important because we all know that forests renew themselves.
