LONDON: Four people were killed and at least 17 injured in attacks by Kurdish-led forces in Syria’s second largest city, state media reported on Tuesday.
The clashes marked the third day in a row that the Syrian Democratic Forces had attacked targets in Aleppo and the surrounding province, Syria’s Defense Ministry said.
Two women and a man died after the SDF shelled residential buildings in and around Aleppo’s Al-Midan neighborhood, SANA reported.
The Aleppo Agriculture Directorate said nine of its employees were taken to the hospital after its building in the area was hit by an SDF shell.
Some residents in the area fled to safer parts of the city, the report said, with authorities urging people to avoid areas where clashes were underway until secured by the security forces.
