According to sources in Afrin, members of the Turkish-backed Al-Hamzat Brigade invaded the home of an Arab family in the Ashrafiyah neighborhood in the center of Afrin Saturday evening and murdered the homeowner.

The man’s wife then threw a concrete block from the roof of the house and killed her husband's killer. As a result, the militia sealed off the entire neighborhood and took the woman to an unknown location. Her fate remains uncertain.
