In a recent development, afrinpost has learned that a young man named Mahmoud Hussein Jassim has been arrested by the Turkish-allied military police militia in Afrin, Syria. The arrest took place on April 5th, according to sources.
Mahmoud, who is only 18 years old and works as a crane operator, resides near Bilal Mosque in al-Ashrafieh neighborhood of the occupied city of Afrin. The reasons behind his arrest by the military police militia remain unclear and have not been disclosed.
Eight days ago, the Turkish-allied “Hamza/Hamzat” faction kidnapped Ibrahim Mustafa, a resident of Jwaiq village near Afrin city. Mustafa was reportedly abducted for demanding the return of his own house and his father’s property, which is currently under the control of the “Hamzat” militia.
afrinpost has been actively documenting cases of arrests and abductions, and the numbers are alarming. In March 2023 alone, a total of 20 cases have been recorded, with 15 of them involving civilians from Afrin. Additionally, one arrest has been documented on Turkish territory. On a positive note, 11 cases of release have also been documented.
