On February 9, Turkish combat drones targeted two vehicles to the west of the town of Amuda in the northern countryside of Syria’s al-Hasakah.
The first vehicle, which was reportedly carrying fighters of the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), was targeted as it was moving on Amuda-al-Darbasiyah road, while the second vehicle, which was carried civilians, was hit near the town of Bherah.
According to the Hawar News Agency, the strike on the second vehicle killed a child, 11-year-old Muhammad Ali Kallah, and injured three other civilians, 13-year-old Maher Issa Kallah, 40-year-old Omar Ghanem and 25-year-old Alaa Gedo Ahmed.
The Turkish drone strikes also damaged a main power line, cutting electricity of more than 40 villages and towns in the northern countryside of al-Hasakah.
Turkish combat drones have been very active over Kurdish-held areas in northern and northeastern Syria recently. On February 6 alone, two positions of SDF near the village of Arab Hassan in the northeastern countryside of Aleppo were targeted.
The Turkish escalation against the SDF has begun to provoke the Syrian Arab Army. The army has already responded to few recent attacks on Kurdish-held areas that wounded some of its service members. A more serious confrontation may break out soon.
