It is noteworthy that Afrin canton witnesses a lot of violations by the Turkish mercenaries; kidnapping, torturing and killing the civilians, looting and stealing the properties, burning the trees and others, in addition to the outbreak of clashes among the mercenaries themselves every once in a while because of the dispute over the sharing of the stolen goods.
