A growing wave of tensions and infighting has covered the Kurdish front as Turkish troops are about to launch an assault on the Eastern bank of the Euphrates River.
The London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Sunday that the Ankara-backed forces known as the Euphrates Shield opened heavy machinegun fire at the village of al-Hamran Northwest of the town of Manbij.
It further said that the Ankara forces targeted the positions of the Syrian Democratic Forces and farms in the region.
In the meantime, the US-led coalition fighter jets conducted round the clock flights over Manbij.
The attacks were carried out regardless of an agreement between the US and Turkish forces to carry out joint patrols along a buffer zone separating the Euphrates Shield forces from the Manbij Military Council forces.
