The segregation process will be applied to all forms of public and private collective transport, including service vehicles. Men will be prohibited from sitting next to women, with the general rule being that men sit in the front and women in the back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He continued, &#8220;We encountered some difficulties, but we hope the people of Damascus will cooperate with us, making things very easy. When a transport bus stops at its station, men will board and alight from the front door, while women will do so from the rear door. This experiment will be applied across all Syrian cities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10722\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10722\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10722 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/demasvus-syria-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Public transportation in Damascus \" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/demasvus-syria-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/demasvus-syria-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/demasvus-syria-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/demasvus-syria.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10722\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Crowding of women and men in Damascus on public transportation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Currently, the internal transport company in Damascus owns 100 buses, most of which are new and were donated from China before the fall of Bashar al-Assad&#8217;s regime.<\/p>\n<p>The official added, &#8220;We are ready to increase the number to a thousand buses if necessary.

Those who violate the new pricing will be punished or have their licenses revoked, but these measures require some patience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In a statement from a young woman who used a public transport bus on the southern ring road in Damascus, she said, &#8220;The implementation of gender segregation is welcome under these circumstances due to the severe overcrowding, which is due to the low prices desired by the poor classes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She continued, &#8220;We have to board the bus while feeling very embarrassed by the crowding, as do the youth and men. Imagine how our situation will be when one bus carries more than 70 passengers, most of whom are standing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10724\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10724\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10724 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/syria-tras-1-1024x624.jpg\" alt=\"Damascus' Zajal Transport\" width=\"1024\" height=\"624\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/syria-tras-1-1024x624.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/syria-tras-1-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/syria-tras-1-768x468.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/syria-tras-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10724\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Zajal Transport Implements Male-Female Separation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The woman, who preferred to remain anonymous, pointed out that &#8220;this abnormal overcrowding sometimes leads to harassment of women by some ill-mannered individuals under the pretext of crowding, often resulting in conflicts and altercations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She added, &#8220;Gender segregation these days is more than necessary.
