Abdul Ghani stated in a press conference in Aleppo today: "While we congratulate the released detainees, we emphasize that this is only the first phase. There are further stages planned to completely clear the prisons and extensive efforts are being made to release all Syrian detainees held by various parties, allowing them to return to their homes and families, aiming to restore civil peace and normal life, in addition to the Syrian state institutions entering all areas across Syrian territory." Abdul Ghani continued: "We are committed to fully implementing the agreement to achieve the unity of Syrian territories, security, stability, and prosperity for our Syrian people with all their components and spectrums." Abdul Ghani also praised the warm welcome by the residents of Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafiyah neighborhoods for the security forces with chants of "One Syrian people," indicating that today's events strengthen confidence in building unified institutions for Syria. Abdul Ghani clarified that all parties are working towards implementing the agreement, with parallel arrangements and steps to evacuate the area of military personnel and remove barriers in the near future, emphasizing that this agreement was achieved through Syrian-Syrian efforts without any external interference.
