TUNNEL USED BY TERRORISTS FOUND
A tunnel, dozens of meters long and used by terrorists, was detected in the village of Zuyan, located south of Tel Rifaat, which is 18 kilometers from the Turkish border. The identifiable part of the terrorist tunnels has a length of at least 30 kilometers. The width of the tunnels reaches 1.5 meters, and the height is 2.2 meters.
WHAT HAPPENED?
The terrorist organization YPG/PKK had started digging tunnels to move easily without being targeted in civilian settlements and front lines after occupying Tel Rifaat and its surrounding settlements in February 2016. The terrorist organization used the tunnel networks it dug in the occupied district of Tel Rifaat to hide them, transport weapons to the front lines, and target civilian settlements under the control of the opposition.
