Aleppo | Industries under threat of security regime and absence of services

 

The industry sector in Aleppo city has suffered lack of services and electricity while the security services still impose financial levies on the manufacturers to let them produce.

Thought the regime has been repeating several times the work manufacturers via qualifying the electricity damaged network due to the war and securing their services, but the reality is completely different.

The manufacturers and owners of labs complain in al-Yarmoon, al-Sheukh Nagar, al-Ramousah of the debris spreading around their labs in addition to the levies imposed by the security regime services on monthly and weekly base amid hiking cost of the production because the labs owners are forced to buy the diesel from the black market due to the electricity blackout in their workshops and not receiving subsidized fuel from the government

The regime security services impose levies on the cars loaded with goods of the industrial zones as well as going routinely to the owners of labs for taking weekly and monthly salaries as salaries and allocations.

According to SOHR, many manufacturers have closed their workshops recently due to the problems that face and the absence of services, which forces some of hem to leave to Egypt.
