Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] Two electrical substations in Hasakah province in Syria failed after Turkish aircraft struck the republic near the border with Turkey, the Syrian state agency SANA reported, citing a statement from the regional electricity company.

We are talking about facilities in the cities of Qamishli and Amuda. The power of both substations is 66 kilowatts.

Turkish aircraft began carrying out strikes on targets in Syria and northern Iraq on January 12 after the death of nine Turkish soldiers due to an attack by representatives of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK). Ankara announced that during its air operation in these republics it destroyed 24 targets of this Kurdish group.

In December, the Turkish army already carried out a military operation in northern Iraq against the PKK. Ankara's actions then came in response to the death of 12 Turkish soldiers.
