BEIRUT, 27 December 2022, (TON): rebel forces and a war monitor said “six Syrian fighters from a pro-Turkish group died in clashes with regime troops that still raged in northwest Syria.”
A pro-Turkiye rebel statement said the six were killed and three more wounded in the offensive launched by government forces backed by Kurdish forces from Sunday night in the Afrin region near the Turkish border.
The dead were fighters from Faylaq Al-Sham, an alliance of rebel groups considered close to the Syrian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, said a source from the group.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which has a wide network of sources on the ground, said the regime troops and Kurdish forces took control of two Faylaq Al-Sham positions in intense fighting involving heavy weapons.
