4 Kurdish civilians were killed by gunmen celebrating Nowruz in the town of Cenderes in the countryside of Aleppo.
Kurdish civilians accused a fighter from the military groups in the “Jaysh al-Sharkiye” faction of shooting at them while setting the city on fire.
The Liberation and Construction Movement, to which the Eastern Army, which is accused of committing the murder of Cenderes, is affiliated, made a statement denying any of its members was involved in the case and said that the perpetrators of the crime were caught. civilians, not soldiers.
The phrase “liberation and construction” was matched by another, published by the “Ministry of Defense” in the Syrian Interim Government, which confirmed that a soldier and a civilian were responsible for the crime that killed 3 civilians and injured others, but did not do so. clearly states the identity of the perpetrators.
“The circumstances of the crime began when two people from the eastern region objected to a fire being built near the camps set up after the earthquake that hit the area, and the incident developed with both people shooting at civilians, which resulted in loss of life and injuries,” the movement said in a statement.
The movement “condemned” a “shameful act against human values and divine laws”, claiming it was able to arrest one of the perpetrators in collaboration with the military police, and said members of the “Sharqiya Army” had committed the murder.
In response, the interim government’s Department of Defense issued a statement calling it a “heinous crime” against civilians as a result of the argument among the residents of the neighborhood.
In the preliminary investigations, it was stated that the argument that broke out between the “betrayed” and two people, one civilian and one soldier, showed that the perpetrators fled by shooting.
It is worth noting that the people of the region organized mass demonstrations demanding the removal of military headquarters in the cities, especially Afrin and Jandires, in the north of Aleppo.
