The Media Center of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) released a statement refuting the reports spread by the Turkish state as part of its ongoing genocidal campaign in North-East Syria.

The SDF statement released on Sunday includes the following:

“The Turkish occupation’s Defence Ministry has published false reports claiming that a virtual attack was conducted by our fighters in the occupied areas, resulting in the martyrdom of 13 of our fighters. We confirm that this news is untrue, and our fighters have not conducted any attacks in the past few days, nor have any of them been martyred.

On the contrary, the Turkish occupation has intensified its attacks recently, targeting the populated areas in particular. Many Christian villages in Tal Tamir were shelled yesterday, as they were preparing to celebrate Easter.

The occupying Turkish State violates all human and moral values, and it is trying to cover up this inhuman situation with false news.”
