A new loss incurred by the Syrians, this time affecting the project to rehabilitate schools in Syria, as the Syrian businessman Mohannad Al Masre was arrested in the United Arab Emirates.

Mohannad Al Masre signed a joint cooperation agreement with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees this summer in Dubai, aiming to support UNHCR's efforts in the field of rehabilitation of educational buildings affected by the war in Syria.

The agreement included the commitment of businessman Mohannad Al Masre to provide financial support for the rehabilitation of 430 schools in Damascus countryside and other areas in Syria with the aim of helping the displaced Syrians and contributing to building what was destroyed by the war.

That agreement, which is now in the wind after the arrest of Mohannad Al Masre, especially since the rehabilitation of educational buildings in Syria constitutes a basic step in building the Syrian society by building the new generation Emad Al-Mustaqbal.

But the important question here is: What will happen to those schools and what will the future of many students in the war-affected areas be? What is the fate of a man who wanted to help his countrymen and fulfill his duty towards them, like Mohannad Al Masre?

In the end, what about children in Syria, where many of them have become out of school for the reasons and conditions of war and are closer to the risk of education deprivation in a period that promises optimism and hope.
