QAMISHLO

The vegetable and fruit market in Qamishlo witnessed a complete shutdown as traders protested the difficulties they face in exchanging old banknotes. Currency exchangers have been refusing to accept the old currency or imposing substantial deductions when exchanging it for the new currency or converting it into foreign currencies.

The closure reflects growing discontent among traders, who say these practices are causing significant financial losses, disrupting buying and selling activities, and placing additional economic burdens on them, particularly given the nature of their work, which requires daily cash transactions.
