The mercenaries affiliated with the Syrian Interim Government burned and looted the Kurdish Red Crescent center in the town of Arisha in southern countryside of Hasaka after they vandalized its contents and stole its medical and logistical equipment before setting it ablaze and completely destroying it. This attack targeted a humanitarian organization that provides services to civilians without discrimination.

Local sources reported that the attack targeted first aid supplies, medicines, and medical equipment allocated for servicing the residents, rendering the center completely inoperable and depriving the population of essential humanitarian services they desperately need.

This attack is part of a series of ongoing violations targeting humanitarian and service organizations in North and East Syria, aimed at undermining stability and disrupting relief efforts.

A video published on social media outlets shows residents expressing their outrage at the mercenaries' actions, emphasizing that these acts violate humanitarian and ethical values, and that the mercenaries' objective is theft and looting of public property.
