SUWAYDA, Syria (North Press) – An individual was wounded, on Friday, in the village of Majadel in the eastern countryside of Suwayda governorate, south Syria, after the Syrian government forces stationed in Shahba checkpoint indiscriminately fired at him. “Qasem Shalghin was wounded by the government bullets and he was transferred to the National Hospital in the city, local sources told North Press. The sources stressed “Shalghin’s condition is critical so that he was referred to hospitals of Damascus to complete the treatment.” Family of the wounded released a statement noting that its son is not wanted by the government and that no arrest warrant is filled against him. Shalghin committed to the instructions while inspecting his car, “but the government members blackmailed and insulted him on purpose,” the statement read. The statement added, “For being blackmailed, he drived passing through the checkpoint so that the government members on the checkpoint fired his car wounding him critically.” Checking the car revealed that it was hit with 14 bullets. Suwayda governorate witnessed, on Friday, large-scale protesters condemning the deteriorating living conditions and the government decision to lift subsidy for thousands of families.
