Turkish army forces have launched a wave of aggression on villages in Shera district of Afrin.

The artillery attack targeted the villages of Merenaz, Shiwarqa and Kafr Antun.

Afrin has been under the occupation of the Turkish state and its mercenary allies for almost two years now. The attacks of the Turkish state against Afrin began on 20 January 2018 and the invasion of the city was carried out on 18 March 2018. Since the invasion, war crimes have been systematically committed in the region. Almost every day, crimes such as the confiscation of property belonging to local people, kidnapping of civilians for ransom, torture or executions are carried out in addition to ongoing attacks.
