ARK News: The two provinces of Lattakia and Aleppo have witnessed a crisis in securing household gas during the past two months to extend its influence to the capital Damascus and increased in the expansion of the invasion of Al-Jazeera area, "province of Hasaka”, In addition, the price of the gas bottle has increased because of the monopoly of some traders to exploit the crisis.

It is no secret that Al-Jazeera area, which is currently controlled by the so-called "self-management" is the source of gas and oil as it tops the Syrian provinces in its oil production despite this, its people are suffering the bitter of securing hydrocarbons, such as diesel oil, which is mixed with water and is filtered in traditional ways, in addition to domestic gas, which has been secured as an award despite the high price of a gas bottle as described by people.

The site of Kurdish National Council in Syria ENKS has followed this issue closely and has highlighted the suffering of the people towards this crisis, who met with the citizen "A", who reported that they have suffered in the securing of the gas bottle for nearly two months, Pointing out that despite the rise in the price of a gas bottle, which exceeded 3000 Syrian pounds and sometimes up to 5000 pounds in the free market, we strive to get it without concern for its price due to the urgent need for gas.

"We have to resort to the free market and bear the consequences of prices, because if we wait for the so-called "Komins” which claims to meet the needs of citizens which we will remain without home gas for a month, pointing out that civilians must take a sealed sheet of “Komin’ and stand in line for a whole week, "he said
He continued "He is lucky if he gets a gas bottle after waiting days in the queue as if he had won the Nobel Prize, indicating that standing on queues does not mean that everyone gets gas, some of them come back empty hand Some of them carry his bottle on his shoulder and return to replace it with a full-fledged from free markets

Ammar al-Soussi received a contract worth 11 million euros for the operation and maintenance of the Gypsum gas plant and will ensure complete repairs

The pumping of raw gas (2% of the domestic gas) from the Gypsum fields south of Hasaka to the regime control areas in Homs began under the agreement, as they are pumping from substations to the gas line in order to feed power plants until the end of maintenance operations the regime will receive the largest share of oil and gas, for its teams take, while the so-called "self-management" undertakes to protect workers, workshops and pumping lines towards the field of Taym in Deir al-Zour and the chemical fertilizer plant in rural Homs.
