Grave crimes against humanity are being committed by the Turkish army and allied mercenaries in the Afrin Canton which they have occupied amid worldwide silence that serves as a support for the invasion that goes against international laws.

The occupation forces have kidnapped 15 civilians in the village of Qestel Kishke in Afrin’s Shera district on Wednesday.

According to local sources, the invaders abducted the civilians after tying them behind cars and subjecting them to severe torture.

Reports suggest that the gangs have asked for ransom from the families of the kidnapped civilians to release them.
