Captured ISIS base turned into school in E. Afghanistan

AVA- "Lycee Payan, once served as the bastion of ISIS militants in Haska Mina district, accommodates hundreds of students today," Miakhil told media.
Militants affiliated to the ISIS terrorist group overran the Lycee Payan building in 2015, but the government forces defeated the hardliner group in early 2019, the official added.
Confirming the news, spokesman for the Education Department of Nangarhar province Asif Shinwari told media that the ruined building would be reconstructed in the near future to allow the children and teenagers to get education there.
Hundreds of schools, according to officials with the Ministry of Education, have remained closed mostly in the eastern and southern provinces where the Taliban and like-minded groups are operational and fighting the government forces.
