Fighters of factions operating within the Turkish-backed “Shield of Euphrates” operation managed to hold captive several fighters of Manbij Military council operating under the umbrella of the Syria Democratic Forces, after they sneaked into their position in the countryside of Manbij. In the details obtained by the SOHR, the factions captivated at least 3 members while the fate of the 4th member is still unknown. Sources close to the Manbij Military Council told the SOHR that the members were held captives after prior agreement with one of the fighters stationed in the same point, where this fighter has made easy for them to sneak into the place and hold these fighters captives, and he also left with the fighters of “Shield of the Euphrates” to their controlled areas. 3 of the captive fighters were shown in a video, obtained by the SOHR, after they were held captives yesterday night, while the fourth member’s fate is still unknown so far.

It noteworthy that the fronts of Manbij countryside in the northeastern countryside of Aleppo, and the contact lines between Manbij Military Council and the rebel and Islamic factions operating in the Turkish-backed “Shield of Euphrates” Operation witness clashes from time to time.
