The Turkish-backed “Eastern Army- Jaish al-Sharqiya” militia forcefully seized several trucks loaded with relief supplies and food provided by the Barzani Charity Association, as they were en route to the stricken city of Jindires to distribute aid to affected residents.
Our reporter said that members of the “Jaish al-Sharqiya” militia and other IDPs attacked the trucks in a savage manner to loot their contents amidst heavy gunfire and chaos.
He indicated that the “Jaish al-Sharqiya” militia members had come from camps located on the outskirts of the occupied Jindires district to take advantage of and seize the relief materials provided by several international organizations, including the Barzani Charity Association.
Our reporter explained that the “Jaish al-Sharqiya” “Ahrar al-Sharqiya” and “Amshat” militias bring IDPs affiliated with them from the Jindires and Shieh/Sheikh al-Hadid districts to show them in front of charitable institutions that they are residents of the Jindires district and that their homes were destroyed by the earthquake.
It is worth noting that most of the affected Kurdish residents in the Jinderes district have not received any assistance until now due to the thefts targeting relief convoys and the failure to register the names of Kurdish citizens on the list of earthquake victims.”
