New reinforcement | Turkish convoy enters military base in Bab east of Aleppo

SOHR activists have reported seeing a convoy of Turkish forces comprising heavy vehicles, armoured vehicles, troop carriers and minesweepers has entered from Bab Al-Salama border crossing with Turkey in Azaz area in northern Aleppo countryside and headed to Turkish base at Jabal Al-Sheikh A’qil in Al-Bab city in eastern Aleppo countryside in the early hours of Monday morning.

 

Yesterday, SOHR activists reported that Turkish forces established a new military checkpoint in Majladya village at the base of Al-Arba’in Mountain in Idlib countryside.

According to reliable SOHR sources, Turkish forces reinforced the new checkpoint with heavy vehicles, tanks and thermal missiles.

It is worth noting that the location of the checkpoint is strategic as it overviews that m5 National Highway between Damascus and Aleppo from Saraqib city all the way to Ma’arat Al-Na’man city 25 kilometers southern of Idlib, as well as overviews most areas in eastern Idlib countryside.

On June 16, SOHR activists monitored the entrance of a Turkish military convoy through Bab Al-Salama crossing and into areas held by Turkish forces and their proxies in Aleppo countryside.
The convoy comprised trucks carrying tanks, armoured vehicles and personnel carriers.
