2 Syrian Soldiers Martyred In YPG/PKK Rocket Attack

7 others wounded in attack in Syria's Tal Abyad district.

Two soldiers of the Syrian National Army were martyred in a rocket attack in Syria's Tal Abyad district by the YPG/PKK terrorist group while seven others were wounded, a local authority in Turkey said Monday.
The governor's office in southeastern Sanliurfa province said the terrorists attacked the army's checkpoint in the town of Ayn Isa with a heat-seeking rocket.
The wounded soldiers were referred to a hospital in Tal Abyad and later to a state hospital in Sanliurfa's Akcakale district.
An investigation was launched into the attack by local security forces and judicial authorities in coordination with the Sanliurfa governorate.
The YPG/PKK often attacks civilian settlements in Ras al-Ayn and Tal Abyad from the areas occupied by the terror group, namely Tal Tamr and Ayn Isa.
In its more than 35-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK – listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the US and the European Union – has been responsible for the deaths of at least 40,000 people, including women, children and infants. The YPG is the PKK's Syrian branch.
