This incident will raise a lot of questions about safety measures employed by the local authorities in these popular sea excursions, because it's not the first time for a tragedy like that to happen of the Red Sea Coast. Just four months ago, I was in Hurghada as well last November. Untertitelung des ZDF für funk, 2017

That's pretty normal in Hurghada, by the way. I've been on a similar submarine excursion before. You go into the submarine and you spend around one hour or less underwater to explore the magnificent sea life there. It's not unheard of. It's quite normal and it's quite regular as well.

whether or not proper safety measures have been put in place to guarantee the security of those people on board, given the frequency of these tours and how regular they are.

Exactly. And that will give another hard blow to the tourist industry. And if we talk about the Red Sea, it's one of the top tourist destinations in the country. And it's very popular for its marine life and sea trips. And so if everything seems to be unsafe, if everything seems to be unchecked by local authorities, so people would be scared to go and they would have second thoughts about it.

What Hana told me during our conversation is that she believes this heavy crackdown on aid workers is meant to spread fear among the public. They just want to make an example of these aid workers who are accused of being potential traitors. So now any person who works for a foreign-funded agency, is very scared.

No. Talks have been coming and going with no end in sight. We have the Houthis on one hand. They are backed by Iran. We have the Saudi-led coalition that supports the internationally recognized government. They have been talking, but there is nothing in sight. And these people, they are waiting for the unknown.

We understand that it's a plan of three phases. It will provide a safe shelter for the people in Gaza who now have nowhere to live other than the tents, while international companies with expertise in this regard will start lifting the debris and then the reconstruction plan can kick off and it will take years. Whether or not The Gulf monarchies will adopt this plan. This remains to be seen.

This is true. It will be a very costly process and a very lengthy one too. And I believe that with this political uncertainty looming... it's hard to predict how long and how much the reconstruction process can cost and whether or not it's worth investing in because, as you said, this region is quite turbulent and the possibility of confrontations happening again is not off the table.

It's as if it's shackling the economy. So a lot of people are hoping that at some point in the near future, Syria will come out of this international isolation. I was visiting a very old market here in Damascus, talking to a shopkeeper who owns a shop for musical instruments. And he said that before the war broke out, he used to have customers queuing up in front of his store.

Yeah, I believe they both go hand in hand. They have to prove that they can adopt a comprehensive political process. And the question is, will they be able or willing to do that? HTS used to be part of Jabhat al-Nusra and part of Al-Qaeda, an extremist movement. And they broke away from them years ago. And now they are trying to prove that they are adopting a new approach.

He said that we will follow diplomacy. We are not up to more military confrontations. And he was referring to Israel and somehow Iran when he was talking about that. He criticized the Israeli tenuous airstrikes on Damascus and various parts of the Syrian territory. And he said this is totally unacceptable and that the international community has to step up and resolve this issue.

As for Iran, he said that we are on good terms with the Iranian people, but he did not talk about the Iranian political elite, who were one of the biggest backers of the former president Bashar al-Assad. So far, he's been adopting a reconciliatory tone when it comes to politics, when it comes to how he treats the minorities.
