Vehicle bombed by Turkish drone in the canton of Qamishlo

In the northeast Syrian canton of Qamishlo, a vehicle was bombed by a Turkish killer drone, injuring several people.

A car was moving between Qamişlo and Amûdê on the 712 link road early Thursday evening when it was hit by a Turkish drone.

According to security forces, several people in the vehicle were injured. Information on their number, identity and severity of injuries is not yet available.

The bombed car was engulfed in flames and burned down, according to ANHA news agency. The fire brigade was called in to extinguish the fire and remove the wreckage.

In self-governing northern and eastern Syria, people have been dying for years because of the illegal drone attacks carried out by Turkey.

The attacks are aimed specifically at representatives of the self-governing structures, members of the associations of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and the civilian population.

In the first half of 2023 alone, the AANES was bombed at least 34 times by Turkish killing machines. 44 people died and 29 others were injured.

A third of the victims were civilians. The last drone attack against the AANES happened last Friday near Amûdê. Four members of the Erka Xweparastin Self-Defense Forces were killed.
