Yesterday (Monday), the US State Department condemned the recent terrorist attacks in the “Euphrates Shield and Olive Branch” areas, which are under the control of the Turkish-backed factions, in the north and northeast of the city of Aleppo.
“Washington condemns the terrorist attacks that took place in the cities of Al-Bab, Azaz and Afrin, which killed 20 civilians, including children,” said State Department spokesman Ned Price.
Price offered condolences to the families of the victims and wished a speedy recovery to the injured, expressing Washington’s concern about the recent increase in the number of “terrorist attacks” in northern Syria, calling for the perpetrators to be held accountable.
He added that such operations threaten the security of the Syrian people and increase instability in the region.
On Sunday, the Turkish Ministry of Defense accused the Kurdish People’s Protection Units of being behind two bombings in the northern cities of Al-Bab and Azaz, which are under the control of the Turkish-backed military factions.
It is worth noting that the cities and towns of the northern and eastern countryside of Aleppo frequently witness explosions by car and motorcycle bombs and explosive devices.
