Syria-Turkey border | Turkish forces and “National Army” factions conduct military exercises in “Peace Spring” area

Turkish forces and their proxy factions of various “National Army” formations have conducted military exercises in Ras Al-Ain/ Sere Kanye area, north-west of Al-Hasakah province on the Turkey-Syria border.

This coincides with the propaganda by Turkish media outlets about imminent military operation and incursion into areas of north-eastern Syria.

This morning, SOHR activists reported that Turkish forces stationed in “Peace Spring” area fired artillery and rocket shells on Umm Al-Kif village in Tel Tamr countryside, Tel Tamr power station and the two villages of Dardar and Ghabesh, north-west of Al-Hasakah since the early hours of Saturday morning , causing injury to six regime soldiers, who had been treated by Russian forces, and Tel Tamr station to go out of service and power cuts to Tel Tamr and its countryside.

Turkish shelling coincides with the flight by Russian helicopters over the area.
