Turkish-backed faction arrests 12 people in Syria’s Tel Abyad
RAQQA, Syria (North Press) – The Turkish-backed Military Police faction arrested on Tuesday 12 people, including two children, in the town of Hamam al-Turkman in the countryside of the city of Tel Abyad, northern Syria.
The faction raided the town and arrested the people on charges of dealing with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), an exclusive source told North Press.
The city of Tel Abyad in the north of Raqqa has been under the occupation of the Turkish forces and has been controlled by the SNA factions since 2019 following the so-called “Peace Spring” military operation that aimed to push away the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) under the pretext of protecting the Turkish national security.
The children, Odayy al-Muhammad and his brother Marwan, were transferred to the Counter-Terrorism center in the city of Tel Abyad for investigation, the source said.
Northern Syria’s areas that are under the occupation of Turkey and the control of the SNA factions always witness states of insecurity and chaos including infighting, kidnaping, theft, killing, and seizure of properties, amid the factions’ inability to impose stability.
