The Joint Operations Administration in Syria announced on Monday, a general amnesty for "all military personnel conscripted under compulsory service," stressing the prevention of attacks against them.

A curfew has also been implemented in Damascus and its countryside, Latakia, and Tartous from 5 pm until 5 am, warning of being subject to the penalty of imprisonment for a month for violating the law.

Those excluded from the curfew are the "National Defense, Fire Department, doctors, medical staff, ambulance, and internal security forces."

The Operations Administration called on citizens to "cooperate and report any violation of the curfew and send details."

Earlier on Monday, the administration announced that its forces are close to completing the control of the capital, Damascus, and preserving public property.

It confirmed in a statement that "the new government will begin its work immediately after its formation."

It also announced the arrest of some people who were inciting sectarianism among the crowds and threatening citizens and minorities, vowing to deal firmly with "any attempts to sow discord or issue threats, as the homeland belongs to everyone, and we will preserve its unity and the security of its citizens."
