Our correspondent in the occupied Afrin region reported that the Turkish-backed “Faylaq al-Sham” militia checkpoint, established in the village of Ghazawiya, is attacking people crossing from Afrin to Idlib, and robbing them of their goods and money.
The correspondent stated that about a week ago (last Monday), the “Ghazawiya” checkpoint members robbed a money changer from Idlib, an amount of 8000 dollars and 4000 Turkish liras, as he passed through the checkpoint heading towards Idlib, indicating that the militia also beat him. The money changer has an exchange office on “al-Vellat” street next to Hamdoush Mall in the center of occupied Afrin city.
The members of the same checkpoint had previously robbed a Van driver of packs of cigarettes, estimated at $ 4,000, in addition to seizing the car as well.
