"Militants placed explosives at the shrine of Sheikh Eissa
Abdelqader al-Rifaiy in the rebel-held town of Busaira, 45 km (30 miles) east
of the provincial capital of Deir al-Zor, and detonated them on Sunday morning,
they said." "Several graves and other sites belonging to the Sufi
sect, a mystical school of Islam opposed by puritanical Salafists from which al
Qaeda draws its ranks, have been burnt or destroyed in the province in the past
few months, opposition sources said." (thanks Amir)
