Rojava-based Hawar News Agency (ANHA) reported that fighting broke out between the Turkish state affiliated Faylaq al-Sham and Ahrar al-Sham mercenaries in Afrin’s Jindires region on Thursday.

The fighting erupted following a dispute over sharing the animals the mercenaries had confiscated from the local people. Reports suggest that some mercenaries were killed or wounded as a result of the clash which lasted an hour.
