February 28, 1949 – The Council of Ministers of the USSR announced a reduction in prices for consumer goods.
After the Great Patriotic War, the financial system of the USSR was in a difficult situation. In order to restore the purchasing power of the rouble and improve the welfare of the population, monetary reform was initiated at the end of 1947, during which banknotes and deposits were changed out, as well as starting a gradual reduction in commodity prices. The first stage of the price reform was carried out by an order of the USSR Ministry of Trade dated December 14, 1947, which established fixed reduced prices for a limited list of food and industrial goods, which included bread, flour, sugar, butter, sunflower oil, beef meat and other goods.
By the beginning of 1949, thanks to the rise of the national economy, a reduction in the cost of goods and an increase in production, it became possible to carry out another price reduction for a wider range of goods in high demand. The corresponding joint resolution of the Council of Ministers of the USSR and the Central Committee of the CPSU(b) was published on February 28, 1949 in the newspaper Pravda. Since March 1, 1949, the prices of bread, meat, sausages, fish, butter, wool and silk fabrics, furs, household goods and electrical goods, cameras and binoculars has reduced by 10%, the price of woolen garments has decreased by 12%, hats and dresses have become cheaper by 15%, and cheeses, perfumes, jewelry, bicycles, tableware and household appliances fell in price by 20%. In addition, the price of hay has decreased by 30%, and mixed feed has become 20% cheaper.
Due to the decrease in prices made on March 1, 1949, the purchasing power of the rouble increased significantly, its exchange rate improved compared to the exchange rate of foreign currencies, real wages of workers increased and the costs incurred by the peasants for the purchase of industrial goods decreased. "In this undertaking, the Bolshevik Party and the Soviet government demonstrated with renewed vigor the great concern for the working people, for their prosperity, for the growth of well-being and culture," the newspaper Pravda reported in an editorial on March 1, 1949.

Germany to give Jolani €300 million despite massacres of minorities
Ahead of an EU-led donor conference in Brussels, Germany has pledged 300 million euros in aid to Jolani's Syrian government, as announced by Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock today.
One reason cited for the funding is the "protection of vulnerable populations." However, numerous videos circulating online show Jolani's forces relentlessly carrying out massacres against minority groups in Syria and promoting the ethnic cleansing of Alawites.

🇸🇾 Breaking | Statement by the Syrian Resistance:
The death traps set by the resistance continue to claim the lives of HTS terrorist gangs on the Syrian coast, inflicting heavy losses in both personnel and equipment, causing further collapse in their ranks. Resistance factions have established control over the areas of Dreikish, Shu‘bat al-Harb, and Janninat Ruslan, while expanding their operations in Masyaf, Hama province. In a major success, the resistance has captured 37 members of Julani’s terrorist gangs in the countryside of Tartous.
A strategic breakthrough was achieved as the resistance took control of the artillery weaponry at the peak of Nabi Yunus, the highest strategic point on the coast. In a precision strike, resistance units neutralized a vehicle carrying HTS terrorists, who were planning to target civilian homes and government sites in Tartous, marking yet another crippling blow to the enemy. Additionally, a military convoy belonging to HTS terrorists fell into a resistance ambush at the entrance of Latakia, where their vehicles were hit, and heavy casualties were inflicted.
Fierce battles erupted around Talkalakh, in Homs countryside, where resistance factions engaged in intense combat against HTS terrorists, leaving many dead and wounded. Meanwhile, the resistance continues its successful capture operations, with more enemy forces surrendering. Al-Muntar checkpoint has now fallen entirely under resistance control.
In Tartous, the Syrian Popular Resistance executed a well-planned ambush against an HTS unit, resulting in several terrorists being killed and wounded, adding to the list of severe enemy losses across the battlefronts. The resistance also fought fierce clashes in Salma, Latakia province, inflicting heavy casualties on both enemy fighters and their military equipment. Another deadly ambush was executed on the Tartous highway, leaving dozens of enemy fighters dead and injured.
Resistance firepower remains relentless against HTS convoys in Latakia, while the enemy struggles to make any field advancements despite their large-scale reinforcements. In Baniyas, intense clashes have been ongoing, with the resistance dealing further heavy blows to enemy forces across all axes. Additionally, the Syrian Popular Resistance launched a series of ambushes and surprise attacks against HTS convoys along the M4 highway, resulting in multiple casualties and the destruction of several enemy vehicles.
HTS terrorists are staggering under the relentless attacks of the resistance, while their intelligence networks and allies fail to secure supply lines. The battles continue to rage across multiple fronts, with the resistance grinding down Julani’s terrorist gangs, as enemy casualties mount and their defensive lines collapse.

Hundreds of unarmed Alawites are being killed today across the Syrian coast, amidst an Arab and international media blackout. Shame on all the countries that claim to defend human rights.
Join the Syrian Coast Observatory for more news about the massacres that the Jewlani terrorists are doing.

Forwarded from the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP): Netanyahu's wars and his project to "change the face of the Middle East" are a blatant threat to the Arab entities neighboring Palestine.
The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) issued a statement saying: "The wars waged by Netanyahu in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, southern Lebanon, and Syria, his perpetration of massacres and barbaric destruction of infrastructure, and his explicit declaration of his project to so-called 'reshaping the face of the Middle East,' constitute a blatant threat not only to Palestine but also to the neighboring Arab countries, from Lebanon to Syria, from Jordan to Egypt, which are threatened with being flooded with approximately two million new Palestinian refugees. This destroys the Palestinian entity, violates the sovereignty of two Arab states, and imposes on both Lebanon and Syria the so-called safe borders of the occupying state, through the seizure and annexation of vast areas of southern Lebanon and Syria, under pretexts to justify the policy of ongoing aggression against Palestine's Arab neighbors and the constant violation of international law and the UN Charter." The Democratic Front stated: "Our people, while resisting the fascist occupation in the West Bank, and at its heart, Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip, are defending their legitimate national rights. At the same time, they are defending the security and safety of the Arab states threatened by Netanyahu and his fascist government. Only by breaking the power of the occupation in the West Bank and Gaza Strip can we break its power and confront its dangers to neighboring Arab states."
The Democratic Front called for responsible Arab action that goes beyond solidarity with our Palestinian people and rises to the level of the Zionist threat threatening the official Arab system, with all its dangerous, limitless repercussions. This is especially true in light of the specter of Zionist hegemony over the region and American support, which no longer conceals its desire to undermine the Palestinian national project, erase the legitimate national rights of our people, and extend its absolute hegemony over the region, its peoples' wills, its wealth, and its national interests.

🇸🇾 Report: Mass killings are taking place in Tartus and Latakia by Julani’s terrorists. This is what has been brought to the world by the collective West, Israel, and Arab countries, who drool over the massacre of innocents while crying over Gaza. They complain about their plight in Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Kashmir, and elsewhere, yet they support terrorism. This is the reality of those who support terrorism, and only when it touches them do they realize the consequences.
