Car explosion kills Asayish official in Qamishli: Monitor
[Rudaw] An official of the internal security forces (Asayish) in northeast Syria (Rojava) was killed on Tuesday after his car went kaboom!, allegedly due to a Ottoman Turkish dronezap, near a prison complex in the city of Qamishli, a war monitor reported.

"A car belonging to a commander in the Asayish went kaboom! near the prison of Umm al-Fursan in the countryside of Qamishli, north of Hasaka," said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based war monitor.

The car explosion coincided with the presence of a Ottoman Turkish drone in the air, the Observatory added.
That’s certainly suggestive…
Hawar News Agency (ANHA), a local media outlet affiliated with the Kurdish-led administration in Rojava, reported the Asayish cordoned off the area and launched an investigation into the earth-shattering kaboom.

The Umm al-Fursan prison in Qamishli hosts detainees under investigation by the Asayish, according to ANHA.

On Wednesday, a mother and her son were killed by a boom-mobile in an urban street in Qamishli, the Asayish said at the time. A landmine had been planted inside the vehicle prior to the earth-shattering kaboom.

The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
has yet to claim responsibility for Tuesday’s explosion.

Ankara frequently carries out strikes in northern Syria on the grounds of targeting affiliates of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) - a Kurdish group that has waged an armed insurgency against the Ottoman Turkish state in the struggle for greater Kurdish rights for decades.

The PKK and its alleged offshoots in Syria are designated as "terrorist" organizations by Ankara.

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) murderous Moslems also continue to pose serious security risks in Rojava, including boom-mobileings, hit-and-run attacks, and abductions.
