A young girl was killed during clashes between the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and the Deir Ezzor Military Council in the village of Al Haseen on August 29, 2023.

@DeirEzzore tweeted that a seven year old girl was killed by a stray bullet during clashes in the town of Al Haseen. @nahermedia identified the little girl as “daughter of Shaheen Al-Khalif” while a Facebook post from Tigris named the girl as Sabah Salfeej Al-Shaheen Al-Khalif Al-Hamad but stated that she had been injured.

The majority of sources attributed the bullet that killed the young girl to the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) while others referenced her death as a result of clashes between the SDF and Deir Ezzor Military Council.

A tweet from @almohrarmedia2 specified that the shooting occurred at an SDF checkpoint in the village. According to Araraby News, members of the Deir Ezzor Military Council had attacked the SDF checkpoint and the SDF had transferred reinforcements to confront them.

The local time of the incident is unknown.

The victims were named as:

daughter of Shaheen Al-Khalif ابنة "شاهين الخليف"

Airwars assessment

On August 29th, 2023, up to three civilians were reportedly killed as a result of ongoing clashes between the Syrian Democratic Forces and the Deir Ezzor military council in the town of Jadid Akidat, east of Deir Ezzor.

Sources @DeirEzzore, @nahermedia, @OrientNews and Mhmad Alseed only reported on the death of Basil Muhammed Al-Salem (Basil Al-Raouj), with at least one source referring to him as a child while others refer to him as a young man. Local sources Euphrates Post and Syria TV News reported the death of two civilians, with Euphrates Post mentioning that “Basel Al-Akla and Ibn Muhammad Salem Al-Hilal” were killed. It is unclear if these are two different people, as both names contain elements of Basil Muhammed Al-Salem’s full name and no other sources mention these full names. A Facebook post from Mhmad Alseed added that “the burial will be tomorrow morning in the village of Jadid Akidat.”

All sources agreed that the death of the civilian/s was as a result of clashes between the SDF militia and the forces of Deir Ezzor military control, with some sources directly attributing the civilian casualties to the SDF. @alsharqia24news stated that “Basil Muhammed Al- Salem was killed by a stray bullet.”

The local time of the incident is unknown.

الغزاوية, Al Ghazawiya, Aleppo, Syria

Airwars assessment

At least one civilian, a civilian male, was injured on August 22nd after artillery shells – allegedly launched from regions jointly controlled by the regime and Syrian Democratic Forces – struck the village of Al Ghazawiya, in the Afrin countryside north of Aleppo.

According to a report from Zamal al Wasl, five shells were launched towards the village in the evening, causing material damage, and wounding the civilian who works as a cleaner and was in the center of the village at the time. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights put the number of shells launched at three, while highlighting the presence of a Turkish military base near the Al Ghazawiya village.

Various reports across local news outlets and regional agencies corroborated the information on the strikes and the casualty, including Syria TV, Al Mohrar Media, and Al Araby News. The Syrian Civil Defence later released an official statement confirming the reports, stating that the civilian was seriously wounded and that “(its team) inspected the places that were bombed and made sure that there were no other injuries.” The Civil Defense added that residential neighborhoods and agricultural lands were affected by the shelling. A tweet from @zanakhalil2 reported that “civilians” were injured and @almohrarmedia2 reported about “civilian casualties” but did not specify how many civilians.

While the shelling has been reported by all sources as originating from regions jointly controlled by the regime and the SDF, it is unclear which of the belligerents was responsible.

The incident occured in the evening.

Airwars assessment

Between three and six civilians, including two women and a child, were injured by alleged Syrian Democratic Forces or Syrian regime missile strikes on Al-Amal camp in Afrin on June 17, 2023.

The Syrian Civil Defense (@SyriaCivilDefe) tweeted that four civilians, including a girl and two women, were injured when missiles launched from areas controlled by the Syrian regime and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) struck the Al-Amal camp near the Kuyet Al-Rahma camp.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that five civilians were injured, and that they were taken to the hospital for treatment while TRT Arabi identified three civilians as being injured. The highest casualty toll was reported by BasNews, which stated that six civilians were injured, in addition to material damage.

Sources were conflicted as to whether the missiles were launched by the Syrian regime or the SDF, with some mentioning only that the missiles came from an area controlled by both while others, such as @alkhabour21, attributed the attack to only the SDF with TRT Arabi (Turkish state broadcasting) specifying that mortar shells were launched from Tal Rifaat. BasNews provided the context that the injuries occurred during an exchange of shelling between the SDF and the Turkish army.

The International Commission for Relief and Development (ANSER) released a statement accusing the SDF of carrying out strikes with four artillery shells on the “Village of Hope 2” camp, which houses displaced people in Afrin, and causing destruction to two houses in addition to damage to ten other houses.

The Syrian Network for Human Rights specified the location as “located in the Jabal al-Khaldiya area near Meryamin village in the suburbs of Afrin city in northwestern Aleppo governorate.”

The @SyriaCivilDefe reported that the strikes caused fear and terror among the residents and children within the camp, who other local sources had said were displaced to the camp because of the earthquake.

The local time of the incident is unknown.
