Summary:
Daraya-a town outside Damascus known for its peaceful resistance to the Assad regime was under siege. No one entered or left, and aid was blocked, while every day, bombs rained down on homes, schools, families, and children. In the midst of this destruction, a group searching for survivors stumbled upon a cache of books in the rubble. A library was born, filled with a marvelous range of books. It was a sanctuary where people could escape the blockade.
