Kurdish Organization for Defending Human Rights and Public Freedoms in Syria (DAD) reports that thirteen teachers from the province of Deyrik in Hassaka have been sacked from their jobs at the suggestion of Political Security.

Kurdish Organization for Defending Human Rights and Public Freedoms in Syria – DAD condemns and strongly denounces this arbitrary decision as unfair and contrary to the basic principles, constitutional norms and laws, and international covenants and treaties signed and ratified by the Syrian government. DAD calls for the return of these teachers to their schools so that they can perform their educational duties freely and away from the eyes of the security services.
