Sources from inside the occupied city of Jarablus in northern Syria said that the region did not witness the necessary preventive measures to prevent the emergence of the Corona virus, while stressing the absence of cleaning and sterilization campaigns for cities and towns.

The sources pointed to the fears of a virus outbreak in the areas under the control of the Turkish occupation, in the absence of hospitals for the health equipment needed to confront the virus.

And this is in conjunction with the heavy movement witnessed in these areas without any decision taken regarding the curfew, as well as in conjunction with the traffic movement in the crossings between the Syrian side and the Turkish side without subjecting the arrivals to the necessary checks.

Turkey ranks seventh in the world in the proportion of the number of injured who exceeded 40 thousand injured, according to government sources, while the number of deaths amounted to 1,000 cases.

This comes at a time when the co-chair of Tel Abyad Canton Council Hamid Al Abd confirmed on Friday that the Turkish occupation is sending Turks infected with Coronavirus within the Turkish territories to the city of Tel Abyad occupied.

The Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria is taking strict measures to close all border crossings, crossings along the lines of contact with the occupied areas, and imposing a curfew since March 23 in preventive measures to prevent the emergence of the Corona virus.
