2022-02-18


ALEPPO NORTHER COUNTRYSIDE, Syria (North Press) – Displaced students in the town of Tel Rifaat in the northern countryside of Aleppo demanded on Thursday the concerned authorities and the international community stop the Turkish violations.

“The indiscriminate bombardment by the Turkish forces and the affiliated armed opposition factions on the town of Tel Rifaat, endangers the lives of thousands of residents, disrupting schools and depriving students of continuing their education,” the Education Board in the northern countryside of Aleppo said in a statement.

Displaced teachers and students from Afrin participated in the protest. They carried pictures of the students who either lost their lives or injured by the Turkish shelling during the past periods in the town of Tel Rifaat and the northern countryside of Aleppo.

“Five children have been wounded in the Turkish shelling over the past days, and schools in Tel Rifaat have been closed, as well as material damage to homes housing displaced people from Afrin,” the Education Board said.

the Karamel and Wardiya schools were bombed by Turkish forces and opposition faction during the current month, February, which led to the suspension of study in these two schools.

The students demanded the international organizations, the concerned authorities, and the international community break their silence regarding the ongoing Turkish violations against the displaced people of Afrin.
