Syrian People's Assembly Condemns Explosion in Bab Sharqi, Approves Bills on Reconstruction

People's Assembly condemns explosion in Bab Sharqi, approves bills on reconstruction

Jun 27, 2013

DAMASCUS, (SANA)--People's Assembly on Thursday condemned the brutal terrorist explosion which hit the historical neighborhood of Bab Sharqi in old Damascus, claiming the lives of a number of citizens.

"Terrorism, with all its forms, wouldn't prevent the Syrians from going on in their social and economic daily activity… the bloody terrorism, funded by some Arab powers, comes as an implementation to the instructions of the Saudi Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal, the official spokesman of the armed takfiri terrorist groups in Syria," the parliament said in a statement.

It added that this spiteful terrorism aims to obstruct the international efforts to hold the conference on Syria and find a political solution to the crisis in the country.

Earlier, the People's Assembly approved on Thursday, during a session chaired by Speaker Mohammad Jihad al-Laham, a bill providing for adding 5% on taxes for three years as national contribution to reconstruction.

Minister of Finance, Ismael Ismael, pointed out that the bill is aimed at contributing to reconstructing what has been damaged by the armed terrorist groups.

The Assembly also approved a bill on establishing a fund for solar heating systems.

Minister of Electricity, Imad Khamis, noted that the bill comes in light of the increasing demand for energy and limited traditional sources.

He stressed that the systematic attack perpetrated by the armed terrorist groups yesterday on the gas pipelines feeding the power generating plant in the southern region has been the largest terrorist attack targeting the electricity sector since the beginning of the crisis in Syria.

Minister of Social Affairs, Kinda al-Shammat, noted that the ministry is working in coordination with governors to deal with the complaints about the work of the relief committees, stressing the ministry's efforts to ensure the delivery of relief aid to al-Hasaka province.
