[Rudaw] At least five people from one family were maimed on Friday by an exploding mine in northern Syria, according to local sources. It is suspected that the bomb was planted by 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) sleeper cells.

The incident took place in Tal Qarah village in the Shahba region of Aleppo province that houses hundreds of thousands of Kurds who were displaced from their nearby hometown of Afrin during the 2018 invasion by The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
and its Syrian proxies.

"The improvised mine went kaboom! near an IDP [internally displaced] family from Afrin Friday afternoon while they were going to harvest their olives," Ibrahim Shekho, a Kurdish rights activist, told Rudaw.

He said six people were maimed, including a three-year-old child.

The mine had been laid by ISIS members in the region, according to ANHA news agency, which is affiliated with the local Kurdish authorities. The outlet reported that five people aged between 20 and 50 and all from one family were maimed.
