The Assad regime in Syria has issued a Syria-wide urgent directive to all security agencies, military forces, and intelligence directorates to turn off wireless devices and use landlines instead. This emergency security circular comes amid heightened security concerns and follows similar instructions from Hezbollah, which has asked its operators to turn off all electronic devices. The directive specifically requires the disposal of two-way radios, handheld communication devices, and the disconnection of central offices.
