Russian and Turkish officers held a meeting in Ain Issa, north of Raqqa, to discuss the recent escalation by Turkish-backed factions in the area.
Reliable sources told the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) that ten Russian armored vehicles, carrying Russian officers and soldiers, set off from the area of Ain Issa and headed to the silos of Shirakrak in the same area.
Observatory sources also said that the relatives of the two civilians, who are still under the rubble of a demolished house in Jahbal, accompanied the Russians to Shirakrak to address this issue with the Turkish side to pull the two men from under the rubble.
In the same context, SOHR sources said that four Turkish-backed militiamen were killed and others were injured in clashes, following an ambush by SDF members on the outskirts of Jahbal village in Ain Issa countryside. This attack came after a group of Turkish-backed militiamen were stationed in the village’s northern part.
On the other hand, Turkish forces fired flares on conflict zones, along with clashes with SDF on these frontlines.
In the meantime, Russian forces and their Turkish counterparts conducted a joint patrol in villages west of the city of Ain al-Arab “Kobani”. The patrol consisted of 11 armored vehicles, four Turkish vehicles, and seven Russian armored vehicles, as well as two Russian helicopters.
