On September 13, Jabhat al-Akrad faction (known as the Kurdish Front) carried out an attack on a position of the Turkish-backed Free Syrian Army (TFSA) near the town of Al-Bab, in Syria’s Aleppo governorate.
Jabhat al-Akrad faction linked to the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) targeted Turkish-backed militants in the village of Sheikh Nasser with an anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) that seems to be a Soviet-made 9M113 Konkurs.

Meanwhile, on September 13, another raid of the Russian Aerospace forces targeted militants’ positions in the vicinity of the town of al-Bara in Syria’s Idlib. According to the reports one of the bombs hit close to a Turkish military checkpoint.
On September 14, Russian warplanes hit Turkish-backed militants in Sheikh Sulaiman area north-west of Aleppo.
Kurdish factions take their chance to target Turkish-backed militants, as Russian warplanes have increased their activity in the northwestern Syria in the recent weeks. Moreover, Kurdish forces may be inspired by reports on a new ground operation of the Syrian Arab Army coming in Greater Idlib.
