Deadly car bombing hits Turkey convoy in north Syria

Friday, 06 December 2019 | AFP | Beirut

A deadly car bomb targeted a Turkish convoy in an area of northern Syria controlled by Turkey-backed fighters, a Britain-based war monitor said.

The blast hit a convoy of Turkish troops headed towards a military base west of the town of Jarabulus in the northern province of Aleppo, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Wednesday.

 The monitoring group did not give a precise death toll, and there was no immediate claim of responsibility for the bombing.

 Ankara-led forces on October 9 launched a cross-border incursion against Kurdish fighters several hundreds of kilometres to the east of Jarabulus, taking control of a 120-kilometre (70-mile) long strip of land along Turkey’s southern frontier.
