Massive blast rocks Afrin city in northwest Aleppo
[AlMasdar] A loud kaboom was heard across northwest Aleppo, tonight, after a powerful blast destroyed the city of Afrin.

The source of the kaboom is still unknown; however, some local activists have claimed it may have been a boom-mobileing.

Afrin city is currently under the control of the Ottoman Turkish-backed rebels; it was captured by the latter during their large-scale offensive in March of 2018.

Since the Ottoman Turkish-backed rebels captured the city, the entire Afrin region has been under constant attack by sleeper cells linked to the Kurdish-led People’s Protection Units (YPG).

The YPG sleeper cells have wrecked havoc in the Afrin region, as they carry out constant liquidations of Ottoman Turkish-backed commanders and attacks against their forces.
