@TurkeyUntold tweeted: “A SOHR [Syrian Observatory for Human Rights] video shows  the execution of 4 persons including fighters of the SDF  by the Turkey backed gangs in Sluk town, southeast of Girê Spî / Tel Abyad”.

@zana_medi tweeted the same video, stating that “Turkish forces are seen executing unarmed people”.

There is, therefore, uncertainty over the victims’ combat status.

Additionally, it is unclear when this incident occurred, though sources published the footage on October 19th.
