Syrian Forces Thwart ISIS Attack on Sayyida Zainab Shrine, Arrest 4 in Damascus Suburb
Jan 11, 2025, 12:20 PM
Syrian intelligence and security forces have successfully thwarted an attempt by the Islamic State group (ISIS) to bomb the Sayyida Zainab shrine in a Damascus suburb. The shrine, a significant pilgrimage site for Shia Muslims, was targeted by a cell of ISIS fighters, who were arrested before they could execute their plan. Four individuals were apprehended in connection with the plot. This incident marks another attempt by ISIS to target religious sites in Syria, following previous attacks on the same shrine. The operation involved cooperation between the General Intelligence Directorate and the General Directorate of Security in Damascus suburbs, demonstrating the new Syrian government's commitment to protecting religious minorities and maintaining security across the country's diverse population.
