    The Internal Security Forces deny allegations regarding the removal of 11 tents for displaced persons in Choueifat by their personnel.

    Issued by the General Directorate of the Internal Security Forces – Public Relations Division, the following statement: Media outlets and social media platforms circulated a video showing a woman expressing dissatisfaction with the situation regarding the removal of 11 tents from a tent project under preparation in the Choueifat area, intended to accommodate people displaced by the war, implying that the Internal Security Forces were responsible for their removal. Therefore, the General Directorate wishes to clarify the following: First: In light of the war, the duties of the security forces have increased to maintain security and protect society, especially displaced persons. They are, first and foremost, our people, and our institution will always remain close to them and by their side. We are keen on their safety and well-being. Based on the recommendations of the Disaster Risk Management Unit, efforts have focused on assisting them and directing them to officially designated shelters, while providing the necessary support and securing their basic needs, in coordination with the relevant authorities. Second: The removal of the tents mentioned in the video was carried out based on an order from the competent judiciary, as they were considered in violation of the law, and in line with the above-mentioned effort to encourage relocation to available shelters for their protection. The unit informed the property owner of the judicial order, who proceeded to تنفيذ it and removed the tents himself, not the Internal Security Forces as suggested in the woman’s statement. Third: The officer concerned by the woman’s accusations received her in his office and treated her professionally and wisely. He did not shout at her or insult her in any way; rather, he explained the mechanism of the judicial order and that the authority of the Internal Security Forces is limited to its execution. However, she threatened to raise the issue on social media, which resulted in a biased statement against the Internal Security Forces that is unfounded. Fourth: The Directorate emphasizes its constant commitment to taking humanitarian and social conditions into account, especially in light of the difficult circumstances facing the country. At the same time, it stresses that any humanitarian initiative must be carried out in accordance with legal procedures or through coordination with the Disaster Risk Management Unit—particularly under the current circumstances—to establish shelters for displaced persons under state authority, away from random encampments. On this occasion, the Directorate urges citizens to exercise caution and accuracy in reporting and sharing news, and affirms that it will not tolerate the pursuit of those spreading false information or misleading public opinion, in accordance with applicable laws. It also calls on all citizens and relevant parties to cooperate with the competent authorities and operate within legal frameworks to ensure the public interest.
