Turkish army cuts off roads at administrative border near the new crossing of HTS
2020-04-28
[SYRIAHR] The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has monitored the deployment of the Ottoman Turkish army near the junction of Katian town, to block HTS trucks which intend to enter regime-controlled areas near the town of Ma’ara al-Na’asan.

The roads to Ma’arat al-Na’asan have been cut off with Aleppo countryside. Several Ottoman Turkish vehicles have been deployed in Ma’arat al-Na’asan and Shalkh to prevent the passage of large vehicles.

This development comes as Ottoman Turkish forces prevent the factions from establishing trading relations with regime forces.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights had monitored widespread popular discontent over HTS’s decision to open a commercial crossing with regime-controlled area. The residents of Ma’arat al-Na’asan town and nearby towns and villages took out to the streets protesting HTS’s decision, expressing their rejection of the opening of a commercial crossing with regime-controlled areas, especially with the outbreak of coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic in regime-controlled areas.

SOHR sources reported earlier that HTS removed the soil barriers and dismantled and detonated landmines in the area of separation between Ma’aret al-Na’assan and Miznaz in western Aleppo countryside, in order to open a new commercial crossing linking its areas to Syrian regime-controlled areas.
