16 military vehicles of Turkish mercenaries destroyed, including 3 tanks, southeast of Manbij and north of Tishrin Dam

The SDF revealed the results of the battles on January 14th in southeastern Manbij and northern Tishrin Dam through a statement, which included:

Every day, the resistance of our fighters against the Turkish occupation and its mercenaries escalates, especially on the fronts of Tishrin Dam and Qereqozaqê, where the remnants of the mercenaries suffer significant losses in both lives and equipment. However, the Turkish occupation is pushing its mercenaries toward a certain and futile end.

Yesterday, Tuesday afternoon, with support from warplanes and drones, the mercenaries launched a wide attack from the "Abu Said" farm on the "Syriatel" hill and its surroundings, using armored vehicles of the BMB type, others carrying Dushka guns, and tanks. Intense clashes broke out between our fighters and the mercenaries, resulting in the destruction of two armored vehicles and the damage of another. The death of 18 mercenaries and the wounding of 9 others were confirmed, while the rest fled.

The mercenaries launched a second attack on the "Syriatel" hill, but a vehicle carrying a Dushka gun and an armored BMB vehicle were destroyed, and the attack was thwarted.

In total, our forces carried out 19 operations against the mercenaries, which resulted in:

1 – Destruction of 7 BMB armored vehicles.

2 – Destruction of 3 tanks.

3 – Destruction of 6 vehicles carrying Dushka guns.

4 – Targeting 3 mercenary gatherings.

After repelling the attacks, as usual, the Turkish occupation and its mercenaries resorted to shelling via drones and heavy artillery, which led to the martyrdom of 5 of our fighters.

Additionally, Turkish warplanes carried out 4 airstrikes on Mount "Barkel" south of Kobani, along with heavy artillery shelling. Some material damages were reported. The airstrike activity continued throughout the day.

On the Ain Issa front, our fighters carried out an operation against the Turkish-backed mercenaries in the village of "Abu al-Zuhur," where a "Toyota" military vehicle was destroyed, and several mercenaries were killed and wounded, although their exact numbers have not been confirmed. Turkish occupation forces and their mercenaries also shelled the village of "Bir Arab" with heavy artillery and targeted it with two suicide drones. One of the drones exploded, injuring one of our fighters, while the second drone was destroyed by our forces, and they seized it. Drone activity continued in the sky of the region throughout the day as well.

On the Qereqozaqê front, due to the fierce resistance of our forces, the Turkish occupation and its mercenaries could not launch any attacks. They resorted to airstrikes with warplanes, carrying out 9 airstrikes on the villages of "Dikan," the silos, and the airport of Serrin, as well as on the "Magrabtain" hill. One of the airstrikes on the village of "Dikan" targeted civilian homes, and several families are still missing, as no one has been able to determine their fate due to the intensity of the airstrikes.

Warplanes also targeted the vicinity of the Qereqozaqê Bridge late at night, while the Turkish occupation and its mercenaries shelled the villages of "Bir Huso," "Ja’da," and "Dikan," as well as Serrin, with heavy artillery, mortars, and rocket launchers.
