The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) released a statement in which it confirmed that they "foiled a ground attack by Turkey and its mercenaries in the villages of al-Mushirfa and Jahbal". 

The statement added that "five mercenaries were killed. Two of the killed mercenaries are held by our forces. Our Media Center published video footage documenting those two bodies and the confiscated weapons."

The statement said that "two civilians lost their lives and two others were injured due to artillery shelling by the Turkish occupation on the M4 road and the mentioned villages.
This attack coincides with other attacks by the Daesh terrorist cells on al-Hasaka prison. Our forces exert efforts to secure the area by preventing Daesh mutineers from escaping."
