DeirEzzor24 exclusive report:
A reporter of DeirEzzor24 Network said that the customs branch in the city of Al-Bukamal began chasing merchants of electrical appliances under the pretext of customs evasion.
He added that the customs chased the merchants on charges of bringing in smuggled electrical parts from Iraq and SDF-controlled areas.
The security services use these methods to blackmail and intimidate merchants and rob them of sums of money.
Merchants dealing with Military Security or the Iranian Revolutionary Guard were not pursued with the protection of the militias they deal with.
