ISTANBUL (AA) – Seven Syrian soldiers were killed and 20 others wounded in a drone attack by the YPG/SDF terrorist group targeting an ammunition site in the northeastern Hasakah province, the Defense Ministry said on Wednesday.
The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA), citing the ministry’s Media and Communications Department, said army units discovered a workshop for manufacturing improvised explosive devices and drone munitions near the al-Yarubiyah border crossing in the Hasakah countryside.
The facility, the ministry said, contained several Iranian-made drones that the SDF was preparing to arm.
After troops began securing and sweeping the site, the SDF targeted it with a suicide drone, killing seven soldiers and injuring 20 others, it added.
