The supply of the well-known Syrian drug, Captagon, almost stopped, with the fall of the regime of Bashar al-Assad. Historically, it has been sold all over Asia. The main distribution channels were established through Lebanon and, to a lesser extent, Iraq. A significant share was sold in countries on the Arabian Peninsula. Captagon was once dubbed ‘the magic potion of jihadi fighters’, as Islamic State fighters were found to take the substance before going into battle. It increases the body’s stamina and makes it possible to go 24 hours without sleep. It also dulls the sense of fear, and when a person is in the required mood, it evokes incredible cruelty and ferocity.
Captagon is a narcotic psychostimulant drug widely used in the Middle East. It is essentially a prodrug of amphetamine (an active stimulant) and theophylline (a weak stimulant related to caffeine). A prodrug is a chemically modified form of a medication that is converted into another substance after it has been metabolised in the human body. Thus, Captagon is converted in the human body into amphetamine and theophylline. These substances have a stimulating and invigorating effect on the central nervous system by increasing the amount of the neurotransmitter dopamine that is available in the brain. As a result, a person experiences a rise in strength and energy, and a feeling of euphoria, joy and fearlessness. The drug is addictive and has a devastating effect on the human body.
Captagon is manufactured in the form of tablets, the cost of which varies greatly depending on the ‘purity’ (from 1 to 25 US dollars).
Earlier, Israeli and the US media claimed that the Assad clan was the main Captagon drug cartel in the Middle East. The export of this drug, according to them, was the main item of Damascus’ foreign trade revenue. The Syrian Captagon trade turnover was estimated at up to $50bn. Production of the drug is an uncomplicated and cheap technological process. The profit margin is much higher than, for example, the profits from the production of heroin and crystal methamphetamines. It could almost be compared to the profit from printing dollars.
The drug was marketed as a supposedly safer analogue of amphetamine. It was precisely for organising the manufacture of Captagon that several members of the Assad family came under international sanctions in March and April 2023. Restrictions were imposed against Samer Kamal al-Assad, Wassim Badi al-Assad and Maher al-Assad, as well as several other individuals close to the president’s family. Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan (the main markets for Captagon) have repeatedly expressed their displeasure with this national Syrian ‘product’.
Samer Kamal owned a manufacturing facility in the coastal city of Latakia. The factory produced 84 million Captagon tablets in 2020, the U.S. Treasury Department stated.
As for sanctions against Maher al-Assad, they were motivated more by political reasons than by involvement in the production and distribution of Captagon.
Captagon exports from Syria have collapsed in recent weeks. Sources in the region say logistics have been disrupted and supplies are almost non-existent. The price of the drug has skyrocketed.
It remains unclear how the HTS leadership will deal with this ‘export’. ISIS has welcomed the production, use and sale of Captagon. Al-Qaeda has either banned or condemned it. The Turks welcome any business in controlled areas that can bring good profits. The leaders of the ‘new Syria’ will have to make a very difficult choice between continuing the tradition of the previous regime and cracking down on the production and distribution of the drug.
For now, the Latin American and Central Asian (Afghan) cartels can celebrate a tactical victory in the competition for the black market in drugs.

captagon was mass produced in covert labs in bulgaria and romania during the 2011-2019 syria operation. saudi, qatari, azeri planes would land and pick it up, along with small arms and grad missiles, and distribute to arab gulf and turkey. they would enter syria. former soviet satellites in eastern europe are now nato organs, facilitating this evil to war zones. until israel and nato are smashed so hard that they are unable to locate their balls, this will only continue
we amerikunts require narcotics to tolerate our ugly cesspool
this means assad is a drug lord managing the syrian drug cartel.
inshallah they will be smashed so fucking hard
captagon is also very popular with nafosexual faggots and urkainian meatheads in ukraine. how else would you describe their suicidal behavior. they are drugged up to the max. it numbs the pain and any rational thoughts they might have. the west is waging evil on a scale that only drugged up zombies can fight. no normal person would fight for the west. they stand for nothing good
obviously assad is a druglord. running and funding syria using drug money
of course ! if you say so. 💩
fugn bullshit. the earth’s drug trade has, is and will continue to be run by the filthy jew rothschild clan.
if only true moslems and true christians would unite as they are both of abraham, the earth may be cleansed of the shit stain which currently rules the earth.
ugly amerikunts require superior jews to rule us

nah, that’s usa lgbt soldier bois, low key cross dressers, they are.
i thank you for responding to my intellectually demanding post, there is always some idiot. heheheh
did you get your boyfriends to downvote my comment? 😆😆😆
only drunken amerikunt reports this–obviously u are latent homosexual in amerikunt gay bar
should export to the usa, they desire such stuff its very popular there. it increases their gdp spending on govt and police to try and control it and it has a huge industry consumer salea and purchasing, paying tax, hospital, all contributing to gdp of usa.
nah, the powers that be already got marijuana for that. side effects of pot ininclude the “munchies” so you spend lots of cash eating yourself to death.
ideally we legalize drugs so that drug turnover is reported. further jp morgan could provide the working capital, the mafia could rent some office space. this would certainly boost gdp in addition to government spending on infrastructure like police, hospitals, or rehab clinics.
is there any proof available to the syrian government of bashar al assad making captagon pills? or is this the 123454325th case of usa just inventing stories aka lying? if it’s a black market how can they monitor it as if they have a real-time feed?
there is none.
a president who supposedly loves his people became a serious criminal in less than 10 days…..sf always wrote about how innocent assad is and how guilty the jihadists are. now, after assad’s fall, everyone has changed their mind. assad is said to have said: my soldiers are corrupt and can no longer protect me…..so assad took the syrians’ money and fled to his lodge brother putin. like the german kaiser once did to the netherlands.
this article is b/s, lies.
actually it’s produced in al-tanf by the us military.
the kurds to the jews/mossad heroin business most likely continued as per usual. kurds collect the locally produced heroin and passes it on the the jews that sell it on the european market through their jewish networks hidden away within the eu-states. the eu is to gullible to even suspect the jews of such duplicity so it goes on or the various institutions are warned to go easy on the jews!
“earlier, israeli and the us media claimed that the assad clan was the main captagon drug cartel in the middle east.”
captagon has always been produced by the beast that is nested in palestine. captagon is as jooish as financial crime, paedophilia and genocide and they have been feeding this filth to their idiot i$i$ head-choppers through their al ciaduh a$$ets and the mossad kosher nostra crime organization.
literally came from assad’s inner circle yet u managed to turn it around and blame it on the kurds… and jews of course. no conspiracy theory is complete without involving jews, obviously.
kurds selling heroin to the jews and being paid for it is a no-brainer! the kurds collect locally produced heroin and also from farther sfield, say afghanistan, on commission for the jews. who never miss an opportunity to cause problems, costly problems, in goyim land, say the eu, and nazi princess with her inbred greed is most likely part of the deal with the jews.
the drug trade is one of the most crucial elements to the u.$.’s black projects for expedience when transparency becomes the burden. we have only latin america and afghanistan as poster children examples “before” and “after” when the american economy belched, and the mic needed substantial funding for their project(s)… especially after trea$ury $ecretary yellen’s announcement(s) earlier this week – presiding over $15 trillion increase in us debt?!!!
the way the militants are able to be crazy and violent or compliant and sedate on command suggests they are given some kind of drugs and/or suffer from mental illnesses. the traits they have are stupidity and gullibility, accompanied by either extreme savagery or unresponsiveness to stimuli depending on what is required
drugs ? well yeah. always a part of the deal these days. more like direct orders from this 8200 chosen excrement. programmed simple minds for vicious purposes.
assad fall was plan with erdogan by putin.but it wasn’t focus on preventative transition as assad soldiers and family life were endanger.at least this soldier save syria and assad against terrorist,usa,france,britain and turkey.it lso cause russia tartus base loss.
i think bashars son is better than bashar
putin is highly risky he also wants now to must produce ornisk missiles with traitor modi.if russia give in to trump and loose crimea the russian military will be prevent from flying out of russia.as all transit road will be completely closed to russia.
