Two seriously injured by Turkish shelling of a village in Sherawa

The Turkish state and allied mercenaries continue their attacks against North-East Syria where they have invaded territories in violation of international law.

According to ANHA, the village of Bênê in Sherawa district of Afrin-Shehba Canton was subjected to a bombardment by the occupying Turkish state and its gangs on Sunday.

A young man named Îbrahîm Biro and Arif Seîd (48), who were working in a field near the village, were seriously wounded by the bombardment.

The wounded civilians were taken to Avrîn Hospital in Fafin district of Shehba.

The villages of Sherawa are frequently targeted by the Turkish army and the proxy invasion mercenaries SNA (Syrian National Army) founded by Ankara. The district is located in the south-east of Afrin and is not fully occupied. The attacks on the region often result in deaths or injuries. In Turkey's plans to expand its illegal occupation zone along its southern border, however, the region occupies an important position, as it connects Afrin with Tel Rifat.

The formerly self-governing canton of Afrin has been occupied by Turkey since March 2018. Since the beginning of the attack two months earlier, which violated international law, human rights violations and war crimes have been on the agenda in what was once the safest region in Syria. In addition to a classic colonial policy, Turkey is also practising a policy of ethnic cleansing, which has already displaced hundreds of thousands of people from their ancestral settlement areas. The demographic change in favour of Turkey and its Islamist invasion mercenaries, crimes such as kidnappings, torture, extortion and murders as well as ongoing artillery attacks occur on a daily basis and with the de facto approval of the international community.
