Firat Umer Kedro, gang leader in the 51st Brigade under the Euphrates Shield made up of gang groups brought together by the invading Turkish state, had been abducted by unidentified persons 5 days ago. There had been intense clashes between the 51st Brigade and Sultan Murad gang groups right after the gang leader was abducted, and there had been casualties on both sides.

Residents of Afrin’s Jindires district have discovered the body of gang leader Umer Kedro, who was killed by a bullet to his head.
