Turkey’s military build-up | Forces bring in new column to their positions in “de-escalation zone”

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has monitored the entry of 20 Turkish vehicles into Syrian territory, loaded with military and logistical equipment entered via Kafr Losin border crossing with the Iskenderun region, north of Idlib. The column headed to observation posts deployed in the “de-escalation zone.”

The number of military vehicles entered Syrian territory since the start of the new ceasefire has reached 8,465 in addition to 10,000 Turkish soldiers.

From February 2 to date, the number of Trucks and military vehicles that arrived in “de-escalation zone” has risen to more than 11,965 Turkish trucks and military vehicles carrying tanks, personnel carriers, armoured vehicles and mobile bulletproof guard booths and military radars.

The Syrian Observatory would like to point out that the number of vehicles and soldiers may vary marginally, as many vehicles, loaded with soldiers and military and logistical equipment, enter and exit individually.
