Part 14/21:
The election, held over a two-day period, involved a complex, tiered system where regional councils elected members of the new parliament from a pool of candidates. Notably, the process excluded many regions—like the Kurdish-controlled northeast and the majority-Druze south—citing logistical and security reasons. It also barred large segments of the population from participating directly, with local voting limited or nonexistent in contested areas, and a significant number of seats still vacant.
