The [FEE TAWAD’DHIM] campaign hosts an iftar dinner for survivors of Assad’s prisons in Afrin as part of the [FEE TAWAD’DHIM] campaign.

As part of the “FEE TAWAD’DIHM” campaign’s activities for the iftar of the fasting, the Syrian Future Movement held on Monday, March 25, 2024, corresponding to the 15th of Ramadan 1445, a communal iftar feast in the city of Afrin in honor of the survivors from the prisons of Assad’s regime and the de facto authorities. The event, attended by more than 100 men, women, and children, was conducted in cooperation with the Without Limits organization.

Mr. Rami Ahmed presented the event, which began with Mr. Mohammed Haj Mustafa reciting verses from the Holy Quran, followed by the reading of the Al-Fatiha Surah for the souls of the martyrs who died in the Syrian revolution and the detainees’ martyrs, and with the intention of relief for all detainees. Mr. Abdullah Zaeen, the director of the Syrian Future Movement’s office inside Syria, then delivered his speech, welcoming the guests, and stated:

“Ladies and gentlemen, survivors from Assad’s prisons, and all prisons of de facto authorities today on the beloved Syrian land,
Brothers and sisters, members of the Syrian Future Movement in the city of Afrin,
It honors us today to meet you in this Ramadan evening, affirming (as we are in the month commemorating the glorious Syrian revolution) that we are committed to achieving freedom and justice, which we see is near, God willing.
Tonight, we meet our brothers and sisters who survived from the prisons and jails of Assad’s regime, those who paid a hefty price on behalf of the entire Syrian people to achieve the desired dignity, freedom, and justice!
We affirm that we all were in a large prison within the farm of Assad father and son together, and we are still trying to get out of this prison until the last breath.
Assad dealt with the people since the beginning of the revolution as if everyone was his detainee, within his family and prison!!
The only difference was that some of us were indeed disappeared by the prisons into their basements,
And some of us remained detained within a prison called the homeland (prisoners of thought and word).
Then the Syrian revolution came and freed us all, unleashing us to be the builders of Syria’s future and the Syrian future.
As we meet you today (you, the survivors from the prisons and detention facilities of Assad), we remember our brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers, sons and daughters who are still in the tyrant Assad’s prison, and we have nothing but sincere work, effort, and continuous demand for them, reminding of the justice of their cause, and pressuring Assad in every way to disclose them.
Then Mr. Zaeen spoke about the Syrian Future Movement, saying: The Syrian Future Movement is a political, national, Syrian civil entity, born from the womb of the Syrian revolution in 2012, with its own intellectual and cultural identity.
Its objectives emerge from a vision with a defined program, revolving in the orbit of specific world programs, according to practical, realistic, and renewed strategies according to time and place, without touching the national constants, leading to a roundtable discussion proposing a national concord document supported by the Syrian Future Movement and calling for its endorsement with the participation of multiple national political forces, aiming for civil peace for the rise of Syria after the war’s devastating effects on both structure and people alike.
Then the director of the movement’s office conveyed greetings and blessings from the president of the Syrian Future Movement, Dr. Zaher Baadarani.
Afterward, Dr. Emad Al-Aqrab, the official of the Without Limits organization in Afrin, spoke about Assad’s regime’s crimes and what happens in his prisons, reminding of their suffering and calling for the release of all detainees.
Subsequently, Mr. Zakaria Jendiyeh was honored on behalf of the surviving detainees, and Ms. Najla Al-Hamd on behalf of the surviving women detainees.
The event concluded with a speech by Mr. Abu Hamza Eyad, introducing the “FEE TAWAD’DIHM” campaign for iftar for the fasting in the Syrian interior, which is based on breaking the fast for more than 300 families in the camps of Afrin and A’azaz daily during the month of Ramadan. Then the Maghrib call to prayer was raised by the voice of the reciter Mohammed Haj Mustafa, after which the fasting guests, men and women, partook in the iftar meal.
