A boom-mobileing on Sunday in the northern Syrian town of Afrin killed three civilians and injured six others, according to The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
’s defense ministry, which blamed the attack on "terrorists."

"The enemies of humanity, terrorists, detonated an car bomb in Afrin city center, killing three innocent civilians and injuring six others, including three children," the ministry said in a tweet.

It said the earth-shattering kaboom was similar to others allegedly carried out by Kurdish forces and the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
 (ISIS).

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported one person was killed and four injured in the earth-shattering kaboom that occurred in front of a shop selling fuel, which caught fire.

Ottoman Turkish forces and their Syrian proxies invaded Afrin in 2018, expelling the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) and forcing thousands of civilians to flee. Since then, the city has seen many deadly bombings. Three people were killed in a rocket attack on August 18. Turkey’s Hatay governor’s office claimed that it was carried out by the YPG.

Turkey frequently blames the YPG, but the force has denied the attacks, saying they do not target civilians. Ankara considers the YPG to be the Syrian offshoot of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), a designated terrorist group in Turkey.
