Turkish occupation sends reinforcements to boost its presence in Hasaka countryside

HASAKA, (ST)- Within the framework of its ongoing aggression on Syrian territories, the Turkish regime on Saturday sent a convoy of nine buses carrying Turkish soldiers to reinforce the presence of the Turkish occupation forces in Ras al-Ayn city of Hasaka countryside.

In the meantime, the Turkish occupation mercenaries continue to loot locals’ properties and commit kidnapping crimes against citizens in the areas they control in Hasaka countryside with the support of the Turkish regime.

Local sources said that a convoy of nine buses, carrying Turkish soldiers, arrived Saturday morning in the Turkish-held Ras al-Ayn city coming from Tal Abyad. The sources added that more buses are due to arrive in the city within the coming hours with the purpose of enhancing the occupation’s positions and supporting its mercenaries of the terrorist groups.

 In the same context, the Turkish occupation’s mercenaries kidnapped a number of youths from the village of Alouk in Ras al-Ayn countryside and took them to unknown place, while other groups of mercenaries continued to loot the houses and crops of the locals in that area.

The Turkish occupation exploits the needs of the besieged locals and pressures them to force the youths to join the ranks of the Turkish-backed armed groups.

On Thursday, Turkish occupation mercenaries kidnapped 25 citizens from al-Ahras village in Ras al-Ayn area, to the northwest of Hasaka, and took them to an unknown place.
