Aleppo province: SOHR activists have reported that the Turkish forces renewed their bombing, with heavy artillery, on Kurdish-held areas in the northern countryside of Aleppo, where the Turkish shells hit positions in six villages, and they are Zuweyan, al-Neyrbiya, al-Sha’ala, Umm Hawsh, Herbel and Umm al-Qura. However, no casualties have been reported yet. SOHR sources had reported rocket fire by Turkish forces and their proxies in the early hours of Wednesday morning, which targeted the Kurdish-held areas of Samouqah and Sadd al-Shahbaa in the northern countryside of Aleppo. The Turkish rockets also hit positions in Kurheyouk, Qarrat Wayran and al-Kawikly villages in al-Bab countryside in east Aleppo countryside, but no casualties have been reported. It is worth noting that this bombardment came as a part of Turkey’s retaliation for the death of several Turkish soldiers a few days ago. Yesterday, SOHR activists reported that Turkish forces renewed their artillery and rocket fire on Alqamiya and Mar’anaz villages in Sharra district in Afrin area in the northern countryside of Aleppo. However, no casualties were reported.
