SOHR sources reported yesterday that Turkish artillery shelling renewed on Dada Abdal, Harmaleh, Rbay’aat, and other areas in the countryside of Abu Rasin, Om al-Kief and Tal Tamr, following advancement attempts and clashes in the areas between Turkish-backed factions and the Syriac Military Council hours after cessation of shelling in these areas.
