YPG claims 42 Turkish soldiers and rebels killed in October attacks

The Kurdish-led People’s Protection Units (YPG) released a new statement this week that detailed their operations in northern Syria last month.

According to the YPG, their forces killed at least 42 Turkish soldiers and rebels during their operations in October.

Of the 42 killed, at least three were Turkish soldiers and the remaining were rebels loyal to Ankara.

Furthermore, the YPG said they destroyed eight military vehicles that belonged to the Turkish-backed rebels.

All of the YPG’s operations were conducted inside the Afrin region of northwest Aleppo; this area was captured by the Turkish-backed rebels in early March of this year.

+18 Video | Northern Syria: FSA rebel shoots dead his sister for having sex with Turkish officer

A Syrian rebel fighter brutally executed his sister after learning that she had had sex with a Turkish Army officer in northern Syria.

In details, Bashar Bseis, a militant fighting for a Turkish-backed rebel group in northern Syria found out that his sister, Rasha, was involved in a sexual relationship with an officer from the Turkish military.

Bashar’s discovery was made after Rasha’s nude photos went viral on social media.

The incident is classified in Islamic and Middle Eastern countries as  ‘Shame Killing’ where the perpetrator believes that the victim has brought shame or dishonor upon the family, or has violated the principles of a community or a religion.

The crime was filmed in a sickening video by the one of Bashar’s friends who encouraged him to ‘restore his honor’.

Asking the victim to show her face to the camera, Bashar fired around 90 Ak-47 bullets into his sister’s body.
