PKK/YPG terrorist organization attacked Deir ez-Zor

Two civilians, one of them a child, were killed in the PKK/YPG attack with heavy weapons on the village of Hacin, which was cleared of terrorism by Arab tribes in the eastern Syrian province of Deir ez-Zor. Thirteen civilians, including seven children, who were injured in the attack, were taken to hospitals.

The occupation of 24 villages by Arab tribes in the east and southeast of Deir ez-Zor province, which is at the center of the conflict, ended on August 27. The terrorist organization recaptured two villages in its attack yesterday.

Arab tribes cleared four villages in the PKK/YPG Manbij countryside yesterday afternoon. In Deir ez-Zor, which the organization occupied under the name of “fighting ISIS” with the support of the US military, all the inhabitants are Arabs.

The terrorist organization forcibly recruits Arab children in the regions it occupies.

The PKK/YPG provides funding for terrorist activities by selling the oil it obtained by seizing wells in the region to the Damascus administration through smugglers despite US sanctions. (AA)
