Expressing their rejection of educational system of Autonomous Administration | Dozens of people participate in protest in Manbij

Aleppo province: Dozens of people from Manbij city in eastern Aleppo countryside went out in a protest in front of the Education and Teaching Committee’s headquarters in the city, expressing their rejection of the educational system of the Autonomous Administration.
The protesters threw stones at military patrols of the Internal Security Forces “Asayish,” where members of the patrols arrested some protesters and then they released them.
The residents in Manbij city reject the educational system adopted by the Autonomous Administration and instead demand the educational system of the Syrian regime and UNICEF.
Earlier today, SOHR sources reported that schools in Manbij city continue to strike for the third consecutive week, in protest against the “Autonomous Administration” imposing its curriculum instead of the curriculum of the regime and UNICEF, as educational institutions refrain from receiving students, which leads to thousands of students being deprived of education.
Residents described the “Autonomous Administration” curriculum as containing violations of Islamic values, customs and morals, in addition to the fact that these violations threaten the identity and values of society.
In the context of these protests, all shops were closed in the city market, expressing the residents’ dissatisfaction with the current situation, amid information about the spread of military patrols in the city streets, in an attempt to prevent residents from gathering and holding protest demonstrations.
