Mohammed al-Bashir, head of the so-called "salvation government," announced, in a televised speech, that he has been authorized to form an interim government by the decision of the new government forces that have taken over Damascus.

"By decision of the General Command, we have been authorized to form an interim government. This will be done tentatively by March 1, 2025," al-Bashir told al-Hadath broadcaster.

It is worth noting that the so-called "salvation government" was formed by opposition forces in Idlib in January 2024 while Syria was still under the leadership of now-ousted president Bashar al-Assad.

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

Meanwhile, media sources reported the selection of Mohammad al-Bashir, the head of the Salvation Government affiliated with the opposition, to lead a new Syrian government to oversee the transitional phase.  

The Administration urged the public to "disregard false reports claiming the existence of underground or hidden prisons," emphasizing that "all prisons in Syria have been fully opened."

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."

Additionally, the Operations Administration said it strictly prohibits any harassment of journalists working for Syrian TV, Syrian Radio, and social media pages, as well as any threats against them under any circumstances, and vowed to deliver year-long sentences for anyone who violated the decision.

The Administration emphasized the crucial role of protecting media professionals and ensuring their freedom to work in service of the nation and society, stating, “Transparency is our approach, and we are committed to turning the page on the past to build a better future.”

Separately, the Syrian Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources called on all workers in production sites to return to their workplaces starting Tuesday.
