Life is returning back to normal in Tabqa after its liberation from ISIS forces back in May 2017. One aspect of normalization efforts is education.

 

Today thousands of children in Tabqa returned back to the classrooms after they lost six years under the invasion of ISIS and Al Nusra.

 

The new semester started in 100 schools and 20 thousand students. 600 teachers also started their duty.

 

The administration of Tabqa released a statement to celebrate the opening of schools in the region. The administration also said that the number of schools and teachers will be increased in the near future.

 

The civil war destroyed Syria's education system in many regions. Millions of students could not attend the school because of the war between ISIS, AL Nusra, Syrian regime and other groups.

Thanks to President Donald Trump, the US Military, the Coalition and our allies the Syrian Kurds for this moment.

Meanwhile in Washington DC:

The Washington ComPost now has a “kids chorus” to mock Trump’s tweets

Hope the parents homeschooled them so they won’t be six years behind. What a mess with older teens in class with little kids.

I doubt they are totally organized yet. 1st day of operation in 6 years? What a task.

The smiles need no translation.

Contrast that to ISIS terror?
