In the recordings, Assad is heard making derogatory remarks about several areas, including a pointed reference to Eastern Ghouta in which he says, “God damn Abu al-Ghouta.” He also expresses disdain for segments of the Syrian population, claiming that people spend money on mosques despite struggling to feed themselves, and talks about the area with disgust.
