In addition, 17,989 trees were burned, most of them olive and pistachio trees, as well as around seven and a half acres planted with lentils, according to a previous statement by the spokesman for the Economy Committee of the Kobani region Khalil Sheikh Muslim.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">Based on the statement issued by the Economic and Agriculture Commission on the 30th of September last year, the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria compensated farmers who were affected by the burning of their crops by providing them with free seeds.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kobani &ndash;
