Turkey’s Provocation Hinders Anti-ISIS Operations, Mazloum Abdi

The targeting of Kobani [by Turkey] and shelling of innocent civilians hinder anti-ISIS operations, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) Commander-in-Chief Mazloum Abdi tweeted Saturday.

“The targeting of Kobani and shelling of innocent civilians hinder anti-ISIS operations, & killings of administrative figures by drones are provocations that threaten security & peace & hinder anti-ISIS operations,” Abdi said.

“Turkey is escalating violations of int’l covenants with guarantor countries against our regions,” the tweet added.

On April morning, the Turkish forces targeted the city center of Kobani, northern Syria, with several shells, wounding two civilians and causing material damage to the civilians’ property.

From the beginning of April, the Turkish drones and artillery have targeted Tel Tamr countryside in north of Hasakah almost on daily basis, causing a state of panic among the civilians.
