According to local sources, the dead man was from the village of Al-Ashara in the countryside of Deir Ezzor, and he tried to cross the Turkish-Syrian border from the lands of Bulbul district, but the Turkish border guards targeted him and killed him immediately.

The Violations Documentation Center in Northern Syria stated on 01/16/2021 that the number of Syrian refugees killed by Turkish soldiers’ bullets rose to 478, including (90 children under the age of 18 years, and 60 women).

The number of wounded and injured by a gunshot or assault increased to 568 people who tried to cross the border, or residents of the Syrian border villages and towns, or farmers, and owners of lands adjacent to the border, and were targeted with bullets.
