Nearly 50 new Turkish military vehicles enter Idlib

Syrian Observatory activists have reported seeing a new Turkish military column of nearly 50 vehicles (armored vehicles, tanks, wheel loaders and petrol tank trucks) crossing into the Syrian territory, via kafr Lusin border crossing in the north of Idlib.

As Turkey keeps sending more military reinforcement to NW Syria, the number of Turkish military units which have entered the “de-escalation” zone since the the new ceasefire came into effect, has risen to 870, in addition to the entry of hundreds of soldiers.

From February 2 to date, SOHR activists monitored the entry of more than 4,270 trucks and military vehicles to the Syrian territory, including tanks, personnel carriers, armored vehicles, mobile bulletproof guard booths and military radars. Meanwhile the number of Turkish soldiers who were deployed during the same period in Idlib and Aleppo exceeded 9,250.
