Long queues have formed at ATMs in Syria due to a liquidity crisis. The public is forced to wait for hours to meet their daily needs.

A public employee shared, "I've been in line for three or maybe four hours. I haven't received my salary for a month and a half," expressing his struggles. Another worker stated, "I'm losing the money I spent on public transport waiting in line for hours to get my salary."

Syria, under the Assad regime, is experiencing a severe economic crisis due to years of sanctions and war. Ninety percent of the population lives below the poverty line. The new administration is making intense diplomatic efforts to lift sanctions imposed by Western countries.

The Central Bank of Syria had lowered the withdrawal limits from ATMs to control cash flow. However, this has further exacerbated the economic difficulties faced by the public.

Economic losses in Syria have reached 800 billion dollars. According to a United Nations report, the poverty rate has risen to 90%, with 9 out of 10 Syrians living in poverty.
