Sports and betting
In Syria, they are massively rooting for football (national league and national team), basketball, wrestling and weightlifting are noticeable.
However, there is no legal betting: licenses for bookmakers and online betting are not provided, advertising and mediation are prohibited.
Illegal channels are suppressed through domain blocking and payment restriction, responsibility is provided for organization and promotion.
As a result, interest in sports is maintained without betting, and part of the "gambling" demand goes into offshore risks or outside the country.
