A state of anger took over in the coastal city of Tartus as the Recruitment Division in the regime army demanding for 72,000 reservists.
The ages of those demanded for reserve army range 33 to 41 year-old, the last of the Tartous males who did not join the army or militias fighting for Assad.
According to the Tartous News page on Facebook, "the demand includes all members of society and cadres and does not exclude anyone, except those who have a health disability or are single sons."
Tartous governorate suffers from a shortage of young people and men under the age of 50 due to their joining Assad forces, emigration or death on the battlefield.
This is what appeared in the comments of many observers. Lamis Shamati from Drekish town commented saying, "as if have young men left In Dreikish. All those left are either only disabled or walking on crutches or bribe their superiors.
Ali Laith wrote a letter to the Assad regime, "why people should fight with you? For a grain of potatoes and a loaf of bread? If someone dies for you, you give him a clock as compensation that only costs 100 SP by giving him a hour of wheat, he will pay 100 liras. We are not slaves to the rulers and those hungry for power."
