Three soldiers were killed and six others were injured in an attack on several locations in the Aleppo countryside by the Turkish occupation.

Turkish airplanes hit several military positions in the Aleppo countryside between 14.37 and 15.00 pm on Tuesday, killing three troops and injuring six others, according to a military source.

The attack is part of the Turkish regime's continuous support for armed terrorist groups, according to the source.

“The Syrian armed forces responded to that aggression and targeted its sites, destroyed some of them, and inflicted human and material losses to the aggressors,” the source said.

They added that sites of terrorist organizations have also been targeted.

“With the escalation of the provocations of the Turkish regime and the recurrent attacks on different regions of the Syrian lands, we stress that any attack on a military point for our armed forces, it will be met with a swift response on all fronts,” the source added.

Yesterday, the city of Ayn Al-Arab, also known as Kobani, and its countryside in the north of Aleppo witnessed military escalations of immeasurable violence.

The exchange of shelling between the Turkish army and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) has resulted in the deaths of civilians and members of the Syrian army deployed in the area by an airstrike launched by a Turkish fighter jet on Jarqali Hill, west of the city of Ayn Al-Arab.

The escalations began with a wave of shelling carried out by Turkish drones and artillery along the border towns of Al-Darbasiyah, Amuda, Abu Rasin, and Tal Tamer in the northern countryside of Al-Hasaka, passing through Ayn Ayn in the northern countryside of Raqqa, and reaching villages in Manij and the city of Ayn Al-Arab.

The shelling resulted in the deaths of civilians including a child in the city center of Ayn Al-Arab.
