  • Chapter 9 Establishment of the Sewerage Development Master Plan
    The study on sewerage system development in the Syrian Arab Republic Final Report CHAPTER 9 ESTABLISHMENT OF THE SEWERAGE DEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN 9.1 Basic Condition for Master Plan 9.1.1 Target Year One of Japan’s most highly authoritative design guideline entitled, “Design Guidelines for Sewerage System” prescribes that the target year for a sewerage development plan shall be set approximately 20 years later than the current year. This is due to the following reasons: • The useful life of both the facilities and the construction period should extend over a long period of time; • Of special significance to sewer pipe construction is the phasing of the capacity strengthening. This should be based on the sewage volume increase although this may be quite difficult to track; • Therefore, the sewerage facility plan shall be based on long-term prospect, such as the long-term urbanization plan. In as much as this study started in November 2006, the year 2006 can be regarded as the “present” year. Though 20 years after 2006 is 2026, this was correspondingly adjusted as 2025. Hence, the year 2025 was adopted as target year for this Study. 9.1.2 Sanitation System / Facilities The abovementioned guideline describes “service area” as the area to be served by the sewerage system, as follows: • Since the service area provides the fundamental condition for the sewerage system development plan, investment-wise, the economic and O&M aspects shall be dully examined upon the delineation of the area. • The optimum area, the area where the target pollution reduction can be achieved as stipulated in theover-all development plan, shall be selected carefully.

  • Highlights Situation Overview
    Syria Crisis Bi-Weekly Situation Report No. 05 (as of 22 May 2016) This report is produced by the OCHA Syria Crisis offices in Syria, Turkey and Jordan. It covers the period from 7-22 May 2016. The next report will be issued in the second week of June. Highlights Rising prices of fuel and basic food items impacting upon health and nutritional status of Syrians in several governorates Children and youth continue to suffer disproportionately on frontlines Five inter-agency convoys reach over 50,000 people in hard-to-reach and besieged areas of Damascus, Rural Damascus and Homs Seven cross-border consignments delivered from Turkey with aid for 631,150 people in northern Syria Millions of people continued to be reached from inside Syria through the regular programme Heightened fighting displaces thousands in Ar- Raqqa and Ghouta Resumed airstrikes on Dar’a prompting displacement 13.5 M 13.5 M 6.5 M 4.8 M People in Need Targeted for assistance Internally displaced Refugees in neighbouring countries Situation Overview The reporting period was characterised by evolving security and conflict dynamics which have had largely negative implications for the protection of civilian populations and humanitarian access within locations across the country. Despite reaffirmation of a commitment to the country-wide cessation of hostilities agreement in Aleppo, and a brief reduction in fighting witnessed in Aleppo city, civilians continued to be exposed to both indiscriminate attacks and deprivation as parties to the conflict blocked access routes to Aleppo city and between cities and residential areas throughout northern governorates. Consequently, prices for fuel, essential food items and water surged in several locations as supply was threatened and production became non-viable, with implications for both food and water security of affected populations.

On 5 September 2017, the Government of Syria (GoS) and allied forces broke ISIL’s three-year siege on the government-held parts of the governorate’s capital city, also called Deir-ez- Zor. ISIL is becoming increasingly isolated as the GoS and allied forces advance on several fronts towards ISIL-held territory in the governorate, and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), backed by the US-led coalition, advance from the north. The intensity of clashes and airstrikes continues to result in civilian casualties, large numbers of internally displaced people (IDPs), and damaged or destroyed infrastructures including health care facilities.

  • When the Peaceful Protest Movement Broke out in March 2011, Bassam
    When the peaceful protest movement broke out in March 2011, Bassam Haidar was serving at the rank of brigadier general as commander of the 24th Brigade Air Forces in Deir Ezzor, an independent brigade under the direct authority of the Air Force command overseeing the Deir Ezzor and al-Tabqa military airbases. Haidar’s abhorrent sectarianism was known from his dealings with residents of Deir Ezzor, where he participated along with Jameh Jameh’s brigade in managing security affairs in the city. He personally participated in carrying out air raids against areas which had fallen outside regime control. He was assisted in carrying out widespread violations by his deputies, Brigadier General Sirhan al-Ali and Brigadier General Mahmoud Youssef. Brigadier General Bassam Haidar is considered to be the man of the province’s Air Force Directorate manager, Major General Jamil Hassan. Bassam Haidar is considered to be primarily responsible for all the air raids and the crimes which were carried out by the 24th Brigade from 2011 to 2015, when the brigade’s squadrons were launched from the Deir Ezzor and Tabqa bases. As a result of the large number of such operations, all training flights were halted and flight hours were harnessed to bomb rebellious areas, especially those in the Deir Ezzor countryside and the Raqqa, Hasakeh and Aleppo countrysides. Given the deterioration of the regime fighter planes’ condition, and the continuous flights by technically rickety aircraft which resulted in many technical failures, Brigadier General Bassam Haidar ordered that more aircraft be sent to the 24th Brigade. Four MiG-23 fighters were sent from the al-Seen airbase to the Deir Ezzor airbase, as well as four Sukhoi-22 fighters from the al-Shayrat airbase to the Tabqa airbase.
