Syria's major cherry production marks setback in war-torn Idlib

Description

In a cherry field in the town of Juzif in the Jebel al-Zawiyah mountains of Syria's rebel-held Idlib province, farmers pick cherries as their harvest marks a major setback due to this year's cold winter and the ongoing 11-year civil war. For that, "most farmers have switched from cherry trees to other seasonal trees", says Syrian farmer Yousef al-Nemer.
