The SDF’s Media Center issued a statement today regarding a new attack targeting its military posts in Abu Hamam, describing the action by Transitional Government Forces as “part of a policy of escalation and spreading chaos in the region.”

The statement added that the forces carried out a legitimate response against the sources of fire in accordance with established rules of engagement, in order to safeguard regional security and the safety of local civilians.

It further noted that the Transitional Government Forces continue to shell military positions and civilian homes with rocket-propelled munitions and heavy weapons in a direct and indiscriminate manner, targeting three military points in the town. The forces are also using drones and suicide drones in their attacks, which increases the level of threat faced by peaceful residents.

The SDF reaffirmed that it will continue taking the necessary measures to stop these attacks and protect stability in the region.
