Syrian man breaks wall to reveal hidden wartime library
Original: Video: Syrian man breaks wall to reveal library hidden in 2011 The collection included hundreds of books, Quranic ijazat
A Syrian man has broken down a wall to reveal a library hidden in 2011, at the start of the country's civil war. The concealed collection contained hundreds of books along with Quranic ijazat, certificates and money, apparently stashed for safekeeping during the conflict. Footage of the discovery is circulating widely, drawing interest from readers and highlighting how Syrian families protected cultural and religious materials during years of war.
Why now: The dramatic discovery of a long-hidden library resonates as Syria's civil war recedes and people revisit what was concealed during the fighting.
