Two civilians arrested in north Syria’s Turkish-controlled city of Tel Abyad
AIN ISSA, Syria (North Press) – Last night on Sunday, Syrian Turkish-backed armed opposition factions and members of the Turkish intelligence arrested two civilians in the countryside of the Turkish-controlled city of Tel Abyad, northern Syria.
A source in the town of Ali Bajaliya, 30 km south of Tel Abyad, said that the Turkish intelligence and the armed opposition factions arrested two civilians from their homes after a raid in the late hours of the night.
The source added that the detainees, Fou’ad Dakhil, 22, and Muhammad al-Alo, 37, work in agriculture and do not belong to any political or military party.
Since 2019, the Turkish forces, along with their affiliated factions have controlled the city of Tel Abyad and parts of its countryside.
Areas controlled by Turkish-backed factions and supervised by Turkish security and military authorities are witnessing widespread violations and attempts of Turkification, according to local and international reports.
A week ago, Turkish-backed gunmen arrested seven dignitaries and elderly people from the Albuo Asaaf clan in the same town.
