The Syrian government forces re-targeted positions of the Turkish forces inside Syria, just before the implementation of the ceasefire truce overnight.
Local media sources confirmed that the Syrian government forces have targeted the area of Jabal Anadan in northern Aleppo countryside, where a Turkish observation post is stationed, causing material damage in the area, without receiving any information regarding casualties.
The bombing comes despite the promises received by the Turkish President Erdogan, from the Russian President Vladimir Putin, during their meeting in Moscow.
On March 18, 2018, the Turkish forces set up the observation point in Anadan, which is the seventh Turkish observation post set up inside Syrian territories.|
War- planes likely to be Russians have targeted the Turkish observation post at the village of Sher Meghar in Jabal Shahshabo in northwestern Hama countryside.
The attack resulted in material damage and destruction of military and logistical equipment at the post, while the fire which broke out at the site continues without information about casualties so far, according to local media sources.
This attack was the second targeting the 10th Turkish observation post in the last two months, where the Syrian government forces had already targeted the post on June 27 this year, injuring 3 soldiers of the Turkish military.
On August 19, a Turkish military convoy in southern Idlib countryside was also hit by an airstrike, which was likely by the Syrian governmental forces, as they had targeted the Turkish observation post in Morek, north of Hama, on June 16.
