More olive trees cut down by mercenary groups in occupied Afrin
Inhumane crimes and ecocide continue in Afrin, which has been occupied by the Turkish state and its mercenaries since 2018.
Jihadist mercenary groups under Turkish control continue their crimes against nature in the occupied Afrin canton in northern Syria.
According to the Rojava-based Hawar News agency (ANHA) citing local sources, the Faylaq al-Sham mercenaries have cut down 79 olive trees in the village of Kefer Nebo in Sherawa district.
The felled trees belonged to local citizens Ehmed Nebo Gulê Xeyrî and Xelîl Nebo Gule Xeyrî.
On the other hand, Sultan Murad mercenaries cut down 9 fruit trees belonging to resident Reşîd Şêxo in the village of Qasim.
Mercenaries from the same group felled 50 olive trees and 3 fruit trees belonging to resident Ehmed Oso in the village of Qurtqolaqê.
The Turkish state and its mercenaries, which occupied Afrin in March 2018, have turned the city into a hotbed of crimes, continuing to commit crimes including theft, kidnapping, rape, massacre, demographic change and destruction of nature in an attempt to displace the people of the region.
Hundreds of people have been murdered and hundreds of thousands of others have been displaced in Afrin since it was occupied in violation of international law. Nearly 500 thousand foreigners and families of mercenaries have been settled in the city in their place.
