Although I did not stop working in these circumstances, what I receive from my daily wage is not enough for my family to live in light of the high prices in the markets. I cannot stay at home because we will starve to death.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">The waves of IDPs that flocked to Idlib governorate as a result of the hostilities in the governorate&rsquo;s south and the adjacent governorates prompted many children to begin working in certain professions and businesses to earn a living for themselves and their families.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">\nAli Issa, 12, said that he had to work and leave his education in school to help his family secure their living needs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">\n&quot;We do not have enough money to buy bread. I work with all of the members of my family so that we can live and get our food and clothes, because we have no breadwinner except our hard work!&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">\nMuhammad al-Khatib, a dentist and displaced person from Tseel town in Daraa&#39;s countryside, says crowding should be minimized as much as possible and in all circumstances.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">\n&quot;Yes, there is a problem in the workshops that work in agricultural lands to harvest crops, etc. At least 15 workers leave the workplace in one car, and it is better for them to follow the preventative measures before leaving their house.&quot;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">The Minister of Health of the Syrian Interim Government (an alternative opposition-formed government), Maram al-Sheikh, published on his Twitter account that all samples that were examined for COVID-19 in the Early Warning Center in northern Syria are negative.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Idlib &ndash;
