Turkish military officer has been reported killed in Syria

Reports from Syrian sources indicate that a Turkish officer has been killed during clashes in the vicinity of Syria’s Tishrin Dam.

An officer and a companion were fatally struck when their vehicle came under attack from a Kornet missile.

This marks the initial report on the fatalities of Turkish soldiers amid the latest events unfolding in Syria.

For the past week, there have been ongoing clashes between the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and factions supported by Turkey, with direct oversight from Turkish military officers. These confrontations are focused on gaining control over key strategic locations, including the Tishrin Dam situated on the Euphrates River.

Following the collapse of the Bashar al-Assad regime, hostilities among numerous factions in Syria have escalated, with heightened tensions involving groups supported by Turkey and the United States.
