[Rudaw] A Ottoman Turkish military vehicle ran over a woman and child on Monday, killing them on the spot, and sparking protests in northern Syria, according to a war monitor.
The reported incident took place in Atarib, Aleppo, as two Ottoman Turkish armored vehicles passed through the town, UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) claimed. Following the death of a woman and a child, angry onlookers gathered around the convoy to prevent them from leaving the town, the monitor added.
There was no official comment from Ottoman Turkish officials.
SOHR added that this was not an isolated incident as a child was reportedly killed on November 3 after being run over by a Ottoman Turkish military vehicle in the Kurdish city of Sari Kani (Ras al-Ayn).
Residents have complained about the manner in which Ottoman Turkish vehicles drive through towns and villages in northern Syria.
The Turks have centuries of practice riding roughshod over their Arab subjects in Syria. Why would they see a need to stop now? Ottoman Turkish troops have been deployed in northern Syria since Ankara launched three major military operations against the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Syria since 2016, invading several Kurdish towns, such as Afrin.
