Assad’s forces have always deliberately targeted the mosques in Syria because of their valuable position in the heart of the Syrian people. Their criminality and barbarity surpassed that witnessed during the French colonialism.
D24 documented the destruction of more than ten mosques by Assad and the Russian aircraft in September 2017. The names of the destroyed mosques are as follows:
- The Othman Bno Afan Mosque in the village of Al Sabha which was destroyed on 04 September 2017.
