The Turkish state continues its genocidal attacks against North-East Syria, where it has already occupied territories in violation of international law. Turkish attacks have killed 16 civilians this month alone.
An unmanned aerial combat vehicle (UCAV) of the Turkish state struck the village of Raqas in the Turkish-occupied Gire Spi (ar: Tal Abyad) city on Saturday. The attack killed three civilians, including a child, and injured another resident, who was hospitalized in Reqa Hospital.
“The Turkish occupation army continues committing humanitarian crimes against the people of north and eastern Syria, attempting to break our people’s determination and preparing for implementing its occupation projects by directly targeting civilians and the infrastructure in the region,” said the Press Center of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in a statement on Saturday.
According to the SDF statement, “Today, at 1:30 P.M., the occupying army committed another crime in the village of al-Raqas in the Chalabiya district, targeting a group of civilians using a UAV, resulting in three civilians being martyred, including a 12-year-old child named Weisi Muhammad Weissi, and one other civilian injured.”
This crime added to the Turkish occupation’s crimes, which killed 16 civilians this month, SDF added.
