2019-10-11
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The corpse count from Kurdish shelling of Ottoman Turkish towns has risen to six people dead and 70 maimed, Al Arabiya’s correspondent on the ground reported.

Earlier in the day, three people, including a child, were killed on Thursday in mortar fire that was fired from Syria to the Ottoman Turkish border town of Akcakale, hospital and security source say.

Seventeen people were maimed after rockets and mortar shells fired from Syria hit places in towns on the Ottoman Turkish side of the border on Thursday, an Al Arabiya correspondent said.

State-owned Anadolu news agency said the shells, believed to have been fired from areas controlled by a Kurdish militia in Syria being targeted by Ottoman Turkish forces, hit sites in the Ottoman Turkish towns of Akcakale, Birecik, Ceylanpinar and Nusaybin.

Syrian state media also reported that festivities are taking place between Syrian Democratic Forces and Ottoman Turkish forces in Tell Halaf n the Al Hasakah governorate of northeastern Syria.
