Damascus Celebrates: US Sanctions on Syria Lifted

Damascus erupts in celebration following the announcement of the lifting of US sanctions. The surprise decision by US President Donald Trump has brought joy and hope to the Syrian capital, where residents have endured years of hardship under international sanctions. "To be honest, it's something joyful. We are very happy," said one young woman interviewed in the video, expressing the widespread sentiment. A man interviewed added, "It feels like a mountain has been lifted off our chests because now people may live more freely." The video shows scenes of people waving Syrian flags, honking car horns, and dancing in the streets. The lifting of sanctions is expected to have a significant positive impact on Syria's economy and its people's lives, marking a potential turning point in the country's long and difficult recovery from civil war.
