The city has been under the Turkish occupation and the control of the Syrian National Army (SNA) factions since 2019 after the Turkish Operation Peace Spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Authorities have not released official statements regarding Sunday\u2019s incident, but local sources emphasize that the risks for civilians attempting border crossings remain high, particularly for those fleeing conflict or economic hardship in eastern Syria.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reporting by Abdulsalam Khoja<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Editing by Jwan Shekaki <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HASAKAH, Syria (North Press) \u2013 Five people were injured on Sunday evening by gunfire from Turkish border guards while attempting to cross into Turkey from the countryside of Sere Kaniye in northeastern Syria.
