Videos circulated online showed attacks on members of the convoy, prompting protests in Hasakah and Qamishli.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Sere Kaniye Displaced Persons Committee accused authorities of failing to protect returnees and called for those responsible for the attacks to be arrested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Internal Security Forces in Hasakah said the incident in Sere Kaniye began after several displaced families returned to their homes without prior coordination, leading to a dispute with current residents. The forces denied reports that residents from Hasakah had prevented returnees from entering their homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tensions also prompted protests in Kobani, where demonstrators rejected attacks against returning families. Security forces subsequently increased their presence in the city to prevent further escalation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Jwan Shekaki<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QAMISHLI, Syria (North Press) \u2013 Calm returned on Tuesday to the Kurdish-majority city of Kobani in northern Aleppo after Syrian security forces concluded operations following attacks on government facilities, the Internal Security Command in Aleppo said.
