Afrinpost – Special
The Afrinpost correspondent in Al-Shahba said that the child, “Muhammad Fayek”, a forcibly displaced child of Afrin in Al-Shahba, had been injured by a landmine explosion in the area where he resides.
The remnants of ISIS militants, who took control of the Shahba area in the first years of the Syrian conflict, are still killing more of the forcibly displaced people from Afrin and causing injuries.
On Tuesday, the 11-year-old boy, Muhammad Fayek Habash, from the village of Chaqala Fawqani, of the Shieh / Sheikh Al-Hadid district, was injured in Tal Sousin village, in Al-Shahba.
As the explosion caused various injuries to the child’s body, he was immediately transferred to the hospital of Afrin in the area for treatment, while the child’s health status remains unstable.
The people of Afrin, after the displacement from their lands and spread in most of the villages and areas in Shahba, were forced to live in semi-destroyed homes and other places that “ISIS” had previously occupied, and this made them full of explosive mines, after they deserted the war of Turkey and its militants to clash with the ISIS war remnants.
At the beginning of this year, the Kurdish Red Crescent reports that 199 people were injured by ISIS mines in the area, 41 of whom lost their lives, and the risks of mines still surround those who have continuously deserted the people of Afrin, in light of the presence of mines on agricultural lands and semi-destroyed homes resulting from a conflict The Syrian regime and Islamic militias affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS in the region previously.
