Turkey Targets Vehicle of Syriac Military Council in Hasakah


A Ottoman Turkish drone targeted a vehicle belonging to the Syriac Military Council while accompanying a Russian patrol to Tel Tamr power station northwest of Hasakah, northeast Syria, on Sunday evening.
The Syriac Military Council is an Assyrian/Syriac military organisation in Syria, part of the Syrian Democratic Forces.
"The Ottoman Turkish occupation targeted with a drone the vehicle of Orom Marogi, a member of the General Command of the Syriac Military Council, while escorting the Russian side to the Tel Tamr this evening," SDF Media Center reported.

"Marogi and the translator were maimed due to this attack," SDF media center added.
Rudaw adds:
A Christian commander of the Kurdish-led forces and another person were maimed in a suspected Ottoman Turkish drone attack in northeast Syria (Rojava), the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and media outlets said.

The drone hit a car carrying a member of the general command of the Syriac Military Council, Orom Maroge, and his translator in Tel Tamir as they were heading to the town’s power station, SDF media head Farhad Shami said in a tweet.

The attack came hours after an alleged Ottoman Turkish bombardment hit Tal Tamir and Zirgan district in Hasaka province, according to a conflict monitor, without causing civilian casualties.

Ankara often targets Rojava, especially Hasaka province, killing and injuring civilians as well as security forces.

Over 700 civilians were kidnapped and 134 others were maimed in Ottoman Turkish attacks in 2021, the SDF said in January.

The region also saw 47 Ottoman Turkish ground attacks and incursion attempts as well as 89 drone offensives last year.

has conducted three military operations in northern Syria since 2016, two of them against Kurdish fighters who Ankara considers a branch of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and a threat to its national security. It has been threatening a new offensive against Kurdish forces in Rojava in recent months.
