## Prediction

Over the coming week, protests over fuel prices and governance in eastern Syria are likely to proliferate beyond current hotspots near Al-Omar and Raqqa into other towns under diverse control (SDF, regime, and opposition). Blockades, threats to oil tankers, and potential crackdowns will complicate humanitarian access by road, particularly for UN crossline and cross-border operations. If violence escalates, local healthcare, food distributions, and schooling will be further disrupted in already fragile communities. Confirmation would be reported protests in new localities, security force deployments, and aid agencies flagging access constraints; denial would depend on rapid policy adjustments or targeted subsidies that defuse tensions.

## Drivers

- Current protest blockade near Al-Omar oil field
- Raqqa residents threatening to attack oil tankers
- Emerging trend of cross-faction Syrian unrest over fuel pricing
