Part 2/8:
As the Islamic State shells the city, a massive sandstorm, seemingly sent by the heavens, engulfs Damascus for an entire month. The relentless storm not only isolates the city but inadvertently disrupts ISIS’s supply chain, forcing the insurgents to retreat, marking a surprising turn of events that reshapes the city's destiny.
In the aftermath, CIA case officer Eva Geller learns of the preacher's rising popularity, now referred to as Al-Massi, who is gaining a following primarily from displaced Palestinians. Among the followers is a curious orphan boy named Jibril, who is drawn to Al-Massi's wisdom. Meanwhile, Geller's concern grows as Al-Massi leads the refugees toward the Israeli border, prompting a swift alert to Israeli authorities.
