Turkey has dispatched truckloads of military and logistical equipment to northern Syria, only a day after hundreds of Syrians staged a demonstration to denounce the presence of Turkish forces in their country.
The Lebanon-based and Arabic-language al-Mayadeen television news network reported that a convoy of 100 trucks, carrying battle tanks and artillery batteries, entered Syrian territories late on Tuesday, and headed towards Jabal al-Zawiya area in Syria’s northwestern Province of Idlib.
Idlib is the last major stronghold of foreign-backed terrorists, especially Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) militant group, fighting against the legitimate government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
The HTS is a coalition of different factions of al-Qaeda-linked terror outfits largely composed of Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, formerly known as al-Nusra Front.
Moreover, Syria’s official news agency SANA, citing local sources, reported that dozens of Turkish military trucks loaded with various ammunition and logistical supplies as well as armored personnel carriers entered Syrian territories on Tuesday.
The sources added that the convoy later headed toward positions held by Turkish-backed militants in the city of Ras al-Ayn.
They noted that a large number of Turkish unmanned aerial vehicles flew overhead as military and logistical equipment were brought into Syria.
On Monday, residents of Kafr Naya town, north of Syria’s northwestern city of Aleppo, expressed strong resentment over deployment of Turkish troops and their allied Takfiri militants to their area during a large rally.
The participants waved national Syrian flags and condemned Turkish soldiers and their allies over attacks against residential buildings and civilian infrastructure.
They urged respect for Syria’s territorial integrity, stressing the need to confront attempts aimed at occupation and disintegration of Syrian territories.
