“Yesterday, Saturday, our forces successfully repelled an attack by Turkish occupation mercenaries on one of our forces points in the village of Khirbet al-Zamala, southeast of Manbij. Clashes erupted between our fighters and the mercenaries, resulting in the elimination of four mercenaries and injuries to five others. The remaining mercenaries were forced to flee. Our forces also successfully intercepted and shot down two suicide drones belonging to the mercenaries.
The vicinity of the Tishreen Dam was subjected to intense bombardment by Turkish warplanes, accompanied by artillery and heavy weapons fire. A Turkish occupation UCAV targeted the civilian sit-in on the Tishreen Dam, resulting in the martyrdom of one civilian and injuries to twelve others.
Turkish occupation warplanes and UCAVs also conducted reconnaissance flights and airstrikes over the town of Deir Hafer, targeting one of our forces’ positions. This attack resulted in the martyrdom of one of our fighters and injuries to three others. Additionally, a mercenary attempted to infiltrate one of our forces positions in the area but was captured.
In the vicinity of the Qara Qwzaq Bridge, our forces responded effectively to the Turkish occupation’s bombardment and the attacks of its mercenaries. Our forces targeted mercenary gatherings on the Khudey Hill and in the village and park of Imo Tomb. These engagements resulted in the confirmed elimination of two mercenaries in the village of Imo Tomb and injuries to four others.
When Turkish occupation mercenaries attempted to initiate an attack on our forces’ positions starting from Khudey Hill in the town of Abu Qalqal, our fighters effectively targeted their gatherings, resulting in the elimination of fourteen mercenaries, including a prominent leader from the so-called “Hamza Division” faction, Abu Al-Harith Al-Jazrawi. Turkish warplanes conducted several airstrikes targeting the village of Bir Hasso, the Qara Qwzaq Bridge crossing, and the villages of Ghasaq and Malha in the vicinity of the bridge. However, these airstrikes did not cause any significant damage.
The total number of Turkish occupation mercenaries eliminated yesterday reached twenty, including one prominent leader. Nine mercenaries were injured, and one was captured. Two suicide drones belonging to the mercenaries were also shot down.”
