They are preventing civilians from using the Hmeimeh humanitarian corridor, which was announced by the regional administration in coordination with the Military Operations Authority. This has caused hardship and threatens the lives of hundreds of thousands of civilians, forcing them to resort to dangerous routes along the front lines and unsuitable waterways, especially after the SDF destroyed several bridges in the area. In response, the Aleppo Governorate has opened several temporary shelters in the Deir Hafer and Manbij areas, providing all necessary services to civilians until military operations in the region conclude. The continuation of these actions and the persistent refusal to submit to the authority of the state and its institutions makes this organization a source of concern for Syrians, threatening their safety and hindering development and stability
