Despite the agreement reached on 22 October in Sochi between Russia and Turkey, which established a 150-hour ceasefire in Northern Syria from 23 to 29 October, the air and ground attacks by the Turkish army and its jihadist mercenaries have continued uninterrupted.

The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) announced on 27 October that, as a result of talks with Russia, they would "reposition" their units and accept the deployment of Syrian central government troops on the border line.

Even after this development, the Turkish attacks have not abated. During the period of the alleged ceasefire, the attacks were concentrated on Serêkaniyê (Ras al-Ain) and Ayn Issa. Turkey expanded its zone of occupation and many civilians were kidnapped or murdered.

Cemila Heme, co-chair of the Kurdish Red Crescent (Heyva Sor a Kurd), told ANF that since 23 October four civilians had been killed by the Turkish state and its jihadist mercenaries in the Cizîrê region only, and a further 79 had been injured.

According to Heyva Sor figures, a total of 1032 people have been injured in Cizîrê region since 9 October. Of these, 65 are minors and 147 are women. 202 civilians were killed, including eight minors and twenty women.
