Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) activists have reported seeing a new Turkish military column of tens of vehicles crossing into the Syrian territory, via Kafr Lusin crossing on Iskenderun border. The vehicles have reportedly headed to Turkish positions in the “de-escalation zone”.

SOHR reported that, as Turkey keeps sending more military reinforcement to NW Syria, the number of Turkish military units, which entered the “de-escalation zone” since the new ceasefire came into effect has risen to 2,810, in addition to the entry of hundreds of soldiers.

From February 2 to date, SOHR activists monitored the entry of more than 6,215 trucks and military vehicles to the Syrian territory, including tanks, personnel carriers, armored vehicles, mobile bulletproof guard booths and military radars. Meanwhile the number of Turkish soldiers who were deployed during the same period in Idlib and Aleppo exceeded 10,250.
