Deeb Charang, owner of a blacksmith factory, told "Sky News Arabia"The demand for the manufacture of home safes to save money and jewelry has increased significantly in the last three years, as people demand camouflaged safes for which nothing indicates their existence.

A banking source, who declined to be named, confirms that banks have become centers for withdrawing money, not depositing it, because of the loss of people’s trust.
