The network added that members of the Russian-backed National Defense Militia worked on verbally informing the people of the need to elect Al-Assad and threatening any person who missed the elections with accountability.

They indicated that the members of both sides informed the people of the city of the need not to leave until the end of the election process to ensure the participation of all in it, as the Syrian regime seeks to gather the largest possible number of citizens and force them to elect Al-Assad.
