Jarablus’ tribal infighting | Dea*th toll jumps to three people, including child

Aleppo province: SOHR activists have documented the death of a civilian from Al-Shuyoukh town in eastern Aleppo countryside of wounds he sustained this morning when a group of gunmen from Al-Jaysat tribe stormed his shop in Jarablus city centre in eastern Aleppo countryside and shot him directly, seriously injuring him. The man was taken to hospital, but died of injuries.

Accordingly, the death toll from tribal clashes has risen to three people, including a child.

After the young man died, his family from Al-Shuyoukh town waged an attack on Amin Al-Hassan petrol station.

Violent clashes erupted with light and medium machine guns in the middle of residential neighbourhoods in Jarablus city, amid calls by Al-Jaysat tribe that they should be careful, close shops and not go to workplaces, for fear of being killed by people from Al-Shuyoukh town in retaliation for the deaths of two of their sons.

This comes in light of the ongoing security chaos in areas held by Turkish forces and their proxies in “Euphrates Shield” and its surroundings.

This morning, SOHR activists documented the death of a 14-year-old boy of injury he sustained in yesterday’s clashes between “Al-Gisat” tribe and residents of Al-Shuyoukh district in Jarablus city in eastern Aleppo countryside.
