ARK News.. A Syrian human rights source has revealed that the Syrian interim government has issued a decision to dismiss hundreds of employees in the city of Homs.

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the interim government on Monday, January 5, 2026, issued a decision to dismiss approximately 400 employees working in the construction and development sector in Homs.

The source indicated that most of the dismissed employees have long professional experience ranging between 15 and 25 years of service, noting that the decision was justified on the grounds of “lack of need.”

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights added that, so far, no official statement has been released clarifying the criteria adopted by the government in implementing the dismissals, nor the compensatory measures planned for those affected.
