Clashes continue at varying pace violence in areas at the northern countryside of Tal Tamr town in the area leading to Abu Rasin (Zarkan) Township, between the Turkey-loyal factions against the Syria Democratic Forces, accompanied by exchange of shelling and targeting, where the regime forces are participating in the ground support of SDF, while the Turkish Forces are shelling positions of the SDF and the regime forces in the area, in addition to air targeting by the Turkish drones, which caused more casualties and injuries in the ranks of both parties, and the SDF were able to regain more positions and points north of Tal Tamr, and they are: Dawoudiyyeh, Azizia, and large parts of al-Arisha, while a Russian military patrol is expected to enter Tal Tamr town during Saturday, also a member of the Turkish Forces died affected by injuries he had in clashes against the SDF northeast of Syria in the early days of “Peace Spring” Operation.

And with the fall of more casualties, the death toll among the Syria Democratic Forces, military councils and internal security forces since the start of the Turkish military operation on Wednesday afternoon have risen to 435.

Meanwhile, the number of deaths among Syrian factions loyal to Ankara and the pro-Turkey cells killed in the attacks and clashes against the SDF during the same period reached 327, including 21 of the cells loyal to Ankara killed in clashes with the SDF, in addition to 11 Turkish soldiers were killed during the battels, amid information about more dead Turks on the Turkish-Syrian border, and the number of those killed is likely to rise due to the high number of wounded, some of them in serious cases.
