Turkish drone targets construction company in Syria’s Qamishli
QAMISHLI, Syria (North Press) – A Turkish drone targeted on Thursday evening a construction company in the city of Qamishli, northeast Syria.
Correspondent of North Press in Qamishli reported that a Turkish drone targeted a construction company in al-Hezam neighborhood, south of Qamishli.
The correspondent added that firefighting and ambulance vehicles arrived at the targeted location after a massive fire broke out.
Only material losses were reported.
The drone strikes took place following a statement by Turkey’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hakan Fidan, in which he threatened to strike a broader range of targets in Syria and Iraq in retaliation for the Ankara attack.
On Oct. 1, two individuals carried out a bomb attack in front of the building of the Ministry of Interior in Ankara injuring two police officers.
On Wednesday, Fidan claimed that the two assailants who carried out the attack had been trained in Syria. “From now on, all infrastructure, large facilities and energy facilities belonging to (armed Kurdish groups) in Iraq and Syria are legitimate targets for our security forces,” he threatened.
