Unknown assailants riding motorcycles set fire to the educational complex in the town of Granij, in the eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zor canton, early this morning. Large parts of the building were burned, and the perpetrators fled to an unknown location.

This attack is the second of its kind against official institutions and centers. Previously, unknown assailants targeted the Zenobia Women's Association building in the town of Abu Hamam, Deir ez-Zor canton, by setting it on fire on October 15. That attack resulted in significant damage to its contents and sparked widespread outrage among women's organizations, who saw it as a direct attack on women's rights.
