Al-Hasakah province: SOHR activists have reported that seven institutions providing medical services, have suspended their work in Al-Hawl camp in Al-Hasakah countryside, after Turkish drones shelled a protection centre in Al-Hawl camp south eastern of Al-Hasakah.

The administration of Al-Hawl camp informed irc, Hi, Releif, Koba, Al-Yamama and the peace and child saving centre, that it would suspend its work for absence of safe working environment due to the military operations and Turkish attacks, where several institutions suspended their work without informing Al-Hawl camp until now.

Yesterday, eight fighters were killed in two different positions due to the aerial Turkish attacks, where ambulances moved six bodies of Commandos forces in a position in the vicinity of Al-Hawl camp, and two bodies in another position near the first one.

It is worth noting that the Internal Security Forces “Al-Asayish”, the People’s Protection Units and SDF are present inside Al-Hawl camp.
