The video above allegedly depicts Turkish regular troops that use a battle tank during the clashes with Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) in the northern part of Syrian province of Aleppo. The battle tank in video was shelling on YPG positions near the village of Sheikh Issa.
Recently, the YPG has been pushed to retreat from a number of villages in northern Aleppo under the pressure of Ankara-led forces (both pro-Turkish militants and the Turkish Armed Forces).
Military sutuation in the area:
Now, the Turksih Armed Forces’ battle tanks and artillery attack on YPG targets at Sheikh Isa and Harbel villages.
Turkish battle tanks (up to 10) have also arrived to the town of Marea to participate in further clashes with the YPG.
