| 2022-02-16 |
AZAZ, Syria (North Press) – On Tuesday, one young man and a child were injured as an IED placed inside a garbage bin detonated in the middle of Azaz city in the northern countryside of Aleppo, north Syria. The IED blew up near the transportation facility, which is run by the local council of Azaz, an eyewitness told North Press. The young man and the child had minor injuries. As a consequence, military forces were deployed in the city and the checkpoints increased the checking process, the eyewitness said. On January 13, one member of the Turkish-backed Syrian National Army (SNA) was killed and two other fighters were injured as an IED detonated in their vehicle in Azaz. Since July 2012, Azaz and the surrounding villages, north of Aleppo, have been under the control of the Turkish-backed Syrian armed opposition factions. Successive bombings and kidnapping take place frequently in the city amid inability of the Syrian opposition factions to control security. Reporting by Farouq Hamo |
