Ottoman Turkic catspaws once again behaving badly.
[NPASyria] The military police linked to the Ottoman Turkish-backed Syrian opposition factions, also known as the Syrian National Army (SNA), arrested on Friday a man from the village of Dik Obassi, in Afrin’s Bulbul district north of Aleppo for participating in the Jindires protests.

An exclusive source told North Press that members of the military police raided the house of Salah Hamo, 44, and arrested him under the charge of participating in the Jindires protests following the killing of five civilian Kurds on the eve of Newroz by Ahrar al-Sharqiya bad boys.

On the eve of Newroz, March 20, Lions of Islam of Ahrar al-Sharqiya faction opened fire on local residents celebrating Newroz, a Kurdish national holiday, in Jindires, 20 km west of Afrin, killing five Kurdish men.

Following the crime, massive public demonstrations took place in Jindires and other areas in Afrin.

The source added that Hamo was accused of other charges, such as receiving funding from abroad and the intention of wanting to arm Kurds in the region through voice notes on his phone, enticing contacts towards mutiny and arming themselves against Ottoman Turkish-backed opposition factions, attest to, the authorities say.

On March 27, Lions of Islam of the SNA Sham Legion arrested Khalil Ibrahim, 35, and Omar Omar, 20, from the village of Baye, in the Sherawa district, following their participation in Jindires protests.

The Monitoring and Documentation Department of North Press recorded the arrest of six people in Afrin under the charge of participating in Jindires protests and raising the flag of Kurdistan of Iraq. Ahrar al-Sharqiya severely beat and injured two persons for the same reason.

On March 23, Kurdish protestors and relatives of the victims of the Jindires killings demanded the prosecution of the perpetrators and the exit of SNA factions from Afrin in a statement.

SNA factions force 2 Yazidi men to convert to Islam in Syria’s Afrin

[NPASyria] Recently, a video has been circulated in Afrin, northwest Syria, in which two Yazidi men appeared with an unidentified sheikh, announcing their conversion to Islam. The video sparked controversy on social media.

Ali Isso, executive director of Ezdina Foundation, wrote on his Facebook page, "The two people, who are residents of the village of Qibar [in Afrin], were subjected to blackmail and a choice between imprisonment or conversion to Islam."

"The video was filmed inside one of the headquarters of the Ottoman Turkish-backed armed opposition factions, also known as Syria National Army (SNA), in Afrin," he added.

The two people are Sheikh Aref and Haider Aref, while the sheikh who appeared with them is called "Ziyuk", according to Isso.

The video is "documentary of all the testimonies that some Yazidis submitted to the International Investigation Committee earlier, in which they repeatedly confirmed that they were given the choice between arrest or conversion to Islam, and some of them were severely tortured for refusing to convert to Islam," according to Esso.

While other pages on social media said, "The truth is known to everyone, but the video proves the involvement of the SNA factions in changing the city’s features in all respects."

The city of Afrin and its countryside were occupied by The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
in 2018 following military operation "Olive Branch" to push away the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) under the pretext of protecting Turkey’s "national security."

The operation caused the displacement of about 300,000 of the original inhabitants of the Kurds of Afrin who have been taking shelter in 40 villages and five camps in Shahba region since then.
