Syria war: Raqqa's residents face property confiscation by SDF authorities

The article discusses the plight of civilians in Raqqa, Syria, who are facing property confiscation by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), the group that ousted the Islamic State (IS) from the city. Residents like Wael and Ayham Jarady have had their homes seized by the SDF, with local authorities and the SDF offering little to no justification for these actions. A controversial law aimed at 'protecting the properties of the absent' was introduced but quickly suspended due to public outcry. Legal experts, such as Abdulrazzak al-Hussein, have criticized the law as unconstitutional. Despite the SDF's control, the fear of IS resurgence remains, and the security situation in Raqqa is still unstable, leading to a continuous struggle for residents trying to reclaim their properties or adjust to life elsewhere.
