Amid bombardment on Al-Hasakah countryside | Turkish artillery fire targets regime military post near Amuda

Al-Hasakah province: SOHR sources have reported that Turkish forces renewed their bombardment on Al-Hasakah countryside, where Turkish forces stationed near the border outposts fired several artillery shells on the perimeter of a regime military post near Amuda, as well as positions in the surrounding areas of the villages of Tel Hamdoun, Jarnal, Kharazah and Khankah in Amuda countryside in the north of Al-Hasakah province.

 

SOHR sources have confirmed that a civilian was injured in similar attacks on Tel Ziwan in the eastern countryside of Al-Qamishli.

 

A few hours ago, Turkish forces shelled several positions in Al-Hasakah countryside, where SOHR reported this morning that Turkish forces bombarded positions in Abu Rasin town (Zarkan) and its surrounding areas with rockets. Meanwhile, a Turkish drone targeted a telecommunication tower in Abu Rasin which resulted in the interruption of telecommunication service in that area.

 

This came after tense calm for a week. Observatory activists reported in early August that Turkish forces and their proxies fired heavy artillery shells and mortars on Al-Kozaliyah village in west Tel Tamr countryside, adjacent to the M4 international highway. However, no casualties were reported.
