13 Injured In Rocket Strike On Turkish-Occupied Afrin In Northern Syria (Videos)

Illustrative image

Late on February 17, a barrage of rockets targeted the Turkish-occupied Syrian city of Afrin in the northern Aleppo countryside.

The rockets landed in the city’s center and western outskirts. At least 13 people, including six children and three women, were reportedly injured as a result of the strike.

Opposition sources said the rockets were launched from a strip of land south of Afrin held by the Kurdish People’s Protection Units. The Syrian Arab Army maintains a fairly large force in the region.

Kurdish forces were accused of carrying out the strike by most opposition sources. However, the North Press Agency claimed that pro-government forces launched the rockets from the town of Nubul south of Kurdish-held areas.

In response to the strike, the Turkish military artillery shelled the Kurdish-held towns of Kasht’ar, Abin and Deir Jamal. No losses were reported.

A state of lawlessness has been prevailing over Afrin, which was occupied by Turkish forces in 2018. On January 30, a bombing in Afrin’s city center killed six people and injured 16 others. On February 13, a series of clashes between Turkish proxies killed and injured 14 militants.

Frankly, Turkey needs to get out of Syria and let its neighbors live in peace. It has made a mess supporting headchopper terrorists.

Israel Blocks Russian-Made Vaccines for Gaza https://anti-empire.com/israel-blocks-russian-made-vaccines-for-gaza/ https://antiempire.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Sputnik-vaccine-airplane-800×600-1.jpg

Possibly it was a fake vaccine that Israel bought and that they now need a real vaccine.

i hope Gaza attack Israel soon i actually think israel cities can be very ruined by Gaza missile

HiaNd

Even if so, for what price? You will only serve to Iranian interests and pay dearly with Palestinian lives and even more destruction your “revenge”. Palestinian only true”revenge ” is to survive and multiply in numbers and wait for the right moment when somebody stronger is in war with Israel (to attack).

Palestine is abandoned by Arab world and must think only about survival only.

Israel is the plan that will remove the entire land of Palestine do not subdue Gaza they have many missiles I would rather Gaza go to war against Israel than make peace agreement I do not think Israel will find it easy to capture the whole of Gaza it will take a long time

I was not talking about “peace” but about fighting as the last option only. Gaza can’t win that war. They don’t have Arab support, Turkey does lip service only, and Iran is far away and they have their own problems. Palestinians have only Allah help.

Furkan Sahin

bro they have Hezbollah help If Israel goes full striker against Gaza Lebanon will probably come in and help trust me

HiaNd

From previous experience that hasn’t been the case. It would be very good if Hezbollah helps.

Furkan Sahin

i think Israel soldiers are weak they are good technology yes but they are not skilled enough to kill Hamas

HiaNd

they skilled enough (and have enough fire power) to kill Palestinian civilians …so even if Hamas wins, Palestine will lose again.

Furkan Sahin

I promise you Hamas and Hezbollah can both beat Israel if they attack right away

HiaNd

One thing is defending Lebanon and another to attack IsraHell. I’ll believe it when I see it

I’m waiting to see the headline ‘damages in the jew occupied palestine caused by Syria’. that is what the world needs to see.
