A DeirEzzor24 network reporter said that commercial truck drivers in the city of Deir Ezzor are now parking their cars on the city streets, away from the Fourth Division checkpoints.
According to the reporter, commercial truck owners fear that their goods intended for transport outside the city will be stolen by members of the Fourth Division if they remain in front of the checkpoints.

Anyone who refuses to pay the royalty is subjected to a delay of several hours, in addition to insults and insults, and may end up being arrested under various charges.
