Turkish military reinforcement | Nearly 70 vehicles enter in a few hours

Syrian Observatory activists have reported that three Turkish military columns of nearly 70 vehicles, including armoured vehicles and heavy gears, carrying military and logistical supplies successively entered the Syrian territory, via Kafr Lusin crossing on Iskenderun border. The vehicles headed to Turkish observation posts in the “de-escalation zone”.

 

As Turkey keeps sending more military reinforcement to NW Syria, the number of Turkish military units, which entered the “de-escalation zone” since the new ceasefire came into effect has risen to 4,515, in addition to the entry of hundreds of soldiers.

 

From February 2 to date, SOHR activists monitored the entry of more than 7,850 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 11,000.
