Civilians trying to leave residential areas in Syria’s northern city of Aleppo came under fire from PKK/YPG terrorists operating under the SDF name, Syrian media reported Wednesday.
Alikhbariya TV said SDF forces fired shots in an effort to prevent civilians from leaving the Sheikh Maqsoud and Ashrafieh districts.
The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) said SDF forces were preventing residents seeking to flee the two neighborhoods from reaching humanitarian corridors announced by the Syrian army.
According to SANA, the corridors are located in the Al-Awarid area and Zuhur Street and were designated to allow the safe exit of civilians amid SDF attacks.
Al-Ikhbariya reported that SDF forces fired heavy machine guns at residential buildings in the vicinity of Sheihan Roundabout and shelled the al-Suryan neighborhood with artillery.
