During the morning of Tuesday, 30th January 2024, an elderly man was injured in an artillery bombardment with contested responsibility allegedly perpetrated by the Syrian Democratic Forces and/or the Syrian regime forces on a residential home and surrounding agricultural lands in the village of Anab located in the northern countryside of Afrin, north of Aleppo, Syria.

The Syrian Civilian Defence (White Helmets) and a Facebook post by Seham Al reported that an elderly man was injured. Some of the reports stated that the target of the strike was Turkish military forces in the village. A Facebook Post by Rojava Gündemi announced that members of Turkish forces were also killed and injured as a result of the missile bombardment.

A Twiter/X user @syrianewsag shared a video of the damage inflicted to the residential homes where a hole in the roof and rubble on the floor can be seen. The Syrian Civilian Defence also shared a photo of a large hole in a wall or a ceiling.

Facebook posts by organisations such as the Halab post alleged that the perpetrators of the strike were the SDF and/ or Syrian regime forces.
