Turkish airstrike hits Syrian forces near Afrin, 6 killed
2018-03-21
[ALMASDARNEWS] An outpost for the Syrian forces near Afrin was hit by an Arclight airstrike conducted by a Ottoman Turkish jet killing six fighters ‐ including a colonel ‐ and injuring two others.

According to sources, the aerial bombardment struck a gathering for the pro-government fighters stationed along the road linking Afrin to Nubl an al-Zahraa towns.

The road is extensively used by thousands of civilians who fled the battles in Afrin, particularly after the Ottoman Turkish-backed bully boyz managed to entirely seize the city.

Last week, a Ottoman Turkish airstrike killed 8 fighters from the Syrian Popular Forces at al-Ziyarah crossing.
