Turkish drones strike two cars near Qamishlo

Two cars were attacked by Turkish combat drones near Qamishlo in northern Syria. According to initial reports, the attacks resulted in injuries.

Two cars were bombed by Turkish drones near Qamishlo in the autonomous region of northern and eastern Syria on Wednesday. According to initial information, the attacks resulted in injuries. The airstrikes took place on the road between Qamishlo and Tirbespiyê, in the town of Til Meruf.

On Wednesday morning, an armed Turkish drone attacked a civilian service facility in Rimêlan in the canton of Qamishlo, also resulting in injuries. On Monday evening, numerous civilians, including women and children, were injured in an attack by mercenary groups commanded by Turkey on the village of Awn-Dadat. They were admitted to various hospitals, some with serious injuries.

In the autonomous region of northern and eastern Syria, people are repeatedly dying as a result of drone attacks carried out by Turkey in violation of international law. The attacks are targeted against representatives of the autonomous administration structures, members of combat units and the civilian population and are carried out by drones travelling unchallenged in Syrian airspace controlled by the USA and Russia. The international community is ignoring Turkey's anti-Kurdish drone war, which began in June 2020 with the murder of three representatives of the women's umbrella organization, Kongra Star, in Kobanê. Since then, well over 200 further drone strikes have been carried out by the invading Turkish state. One of these targeted attacks killed SDF commander Ferhad Dêrik at the end of October. The Turkish state also used killer drones during an air offensive between 4 and 10 October, which led to the destruction of eighty per cent of the infrastructure in northern and eastern Syria. Almost fifty people were killed in the attacks and dozens more suffered injuries, some of them seriously. Turkish drone terror also continues to claim lives in southern Kurdistan (northern Iraq).
