armed opposition factions, aka the Syrian National Army (SNA), cut down on Tuesday hundreds of trees in a forested area in Afrin region, Northwest Syria to sell the wood outside the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Local sources told North Press that the Sultan Suleiman Shah (al-Amshat) faction, affiliated with Turkey, cut down more than 1,000 pine trees in the forest located south of the town of Mabata (Maabatli), in Afrin northern countryside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tree-cutting operation is reportedly overseen by an al-Amshat security official named Abu Ghazi, who also manages the transportation, loading, and selling of the wood in Idlib markets.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"pgc-sgb-cb wp-block-pgcsimplygalleryblock-slider \"
