After a Syrian national in Kayseri sexually assaulted a 5-year-old girl who is a relative of his, tensions have escalated due to the incidents occurring in the areas controlled by Turkish soldiers through the Euphrates Shield operation in Syria. ATTEMPTED ATTACK ON SYRIAN HOMESAnother city where reactions towards Syrians have intensified is Istanbul. A large group gathered in Sultanbeyli and attempted to cause damage to Syrian-owned businesses and homes. WARNING FROM POLICE OFFICER: "DON'T FALL FOR PROVOCATION"A crowd formed by young people who were repelled by a police officer's words, "I am the master and commander of nationalism. Don't fall for provocation," dispersed. The tension that occurred was recorded second by second with a mobile phone camera.
